Many thanks Si

UPDATE: = PLACED THE ORDER TODAY TUESDAY 08/04/2014 I've managed to place the order today, ordered 8 in total of the longer linkages, 7 are spoken for on this 1st batch, and 1 will be left over as spare. Plus I ordered another 2 of the smaller linkages just in case anyone needs any in the future, I'll update the thread regarding the smaller linkages. The longer wiper linkages I've been able to purchase them for a little less, as I've bought a batch of them, they are £20.60 per each not £21.50, I've amended the first page of this thread with the price above. Delivery time to me is about 2-1/2 to 3 weeks, I'll let you guys know once they're with me. Once again many thanks. Si

UPDATE: I've had a text message from delivery firm DPD, delivery to me will be tomorrow Tuesday 08/04/2014 around 1:30pm or latest same time on Wednesday 09/04/2014 I'll send you guys a PM once there at my door. Thanks again Si

>>AMENDED Carriage / postage: I'm going to have to purchase some cardboard tubes, these will work out at £0.56p each, these tubes will be 625mm long X 1.5mm or 2mm thick X 50mm in diameter. So I'll have to add the cost of the cardboard tubes to the postage cost, which will be an extra £0.56p on top. This will fall under the medium sized postal package according to Royal Mail, the weight should be well under 1 KG Royal Mail do 1st and 2nd class signed on delivery for this sized package, and also do 1st and 2nd class standard delivery (Standard is unsigned) A 450mm postal tube or under is classed as a small sized package, but due to these longer linkages being 529mm long they'll have to be sent in the 625mm or 640mm long postal tubes, which falls under the medium weight section. >>> I've spoken again to Royal Mail, and can also offer 1st and 2nd class standard delivery, which will be cheaper than the signed on deliveries, but the standard deliveries only have compensation insurance capped to £20.00, where as the signed on deliveries have compansation insurance capped to £50.00 The value of each of these longer linkages is £20.60 You can choose from any of the 4 delivery options below. 625mm X 1.5mm or 2mm thick X 50mm in diameter = classed as medium weight package. Royal Mail postage details are as follows for medium sized postage tubes capped to 1 KG in weight. Option 1A = ( Item has compensation insurance for loss or damage of item up to £50.00 ) 1st class signed on delivery £7.30 = (Please note £0.56p has been added to this postage price) Capped to 1 KG in weight Delivery with in 1 to 2 working days UK Mainland delivery Option 1B = ( Item has compensation insurance for loss or damage of item up to £50.00 ) 2nd class signed on delivery £6.85 = (Please note £0.56p has been added to this postage price) Capped to 1 KG in weight Delivery with in 2 to 3 working days UK Mainland delivery Option 2A = ( Item has compensation insurance for loss or damage of item up to £20.00 ) 1st class standard delivery £6.20 (Please note £0.56p has been added to this postage price) Capped to 1 KG in weight Delivery with in 1 to 2 working days UK Mainland delivery Option 2B = ( Item has compensation insurance for loss or damage of item up to £20.00 ) 2nd class standard delivery £5.75 (Please note £0.56p has been added to this postage price) Capped to 1 KG in weight Delivery with in 2 to 3 working days UK Mainland delivery These longer linkages weigh 138 grams each, the postal tubes weigh 147 grams, so complete cross weight for one linkage is 285 grams Complete cross weight for two long linkages is 424 grams And complete cross weight of one small & one long linkage sent together is 352 grams NOTE ! I've spoken to royal mail / post office and they confirmed the postal tubes in question, do fall under the medium weight section, so the price options above are correct. Just got to purchase the postal tubes now for a good low price, I've added £0.64p to the postage prices above, but should be able to purchase a batch for £0.45p or £0.55p per each tube. Once I've found a good supplier and a spot on price I'll amend the postage prices. I'VE MANAGED TO PURCHASE SOME POSTAL TUBES FOR £0.56p PER EACH May / June 2014 prices Any delivery address outside the UK Mainland please ask for quote. To Ireland looks like it's £16.00 to £19.00 for 2nd class signed on delivery via Royal Mail / Parcel Force, states delivery within 3 to 5 working days. But please ask for quote and I'll see what I can do, as I should be able to sort it for £10.00 maybe. Many thanks. Si

Gave Corrado a full servive and stamped up service book with my own stamp, which just says (service carried out on vehicle) Plus removed rear bumper to treat small rust areas, which was mainly removing old under seal from the back of rear panel and floor panel close to fuel tank. Also sanded down to bare metal lower rear edge of O/S/F wing just under wing indicator, used some rust eater which really helped to remove the rust, then used a little filler on the wing just to cover over the small wholes and area that is pitted, but only to hold the wing together and keep it's shape until my mate can repair it as he's a panel beater. Also managed to hammer out a small dent in bonnet, and treat paint work where dent was ready for my mate to repray the bonnet also. Ordered some sheet metal from my mate which I should have next week, as I need to fabricate up a new air scoop as mine is rusted through in areas, it's the metal scoop that is under the radiator, it helps to direct the air flow up and through the radiator core, I've been meening to do this for ages so hopefully I'll have time to soon. Been having some water coming into car on drivers side, found and traced this to be the front windsceen which is leaking slightly, so joyice of joys another pants job to sort out, lol. Si

UPDATE: I've chased this 3rd batch order, and been told it'll be delivered to me next week, possibly on Wednesday 9th April 2014. I'll let you guys know once the order has been delivered. Many thanks Si

Hello there, just a quick update I've not had delivery yet, of these small wiper linKages, the previous 2 batches took 2 weeks to arrive, but looks like this third batch could be coming, from a different warehouse in Germany. I'll chase the order up, hopefully it'll be here next week. I know it can take up to 4 weeks. Many thanks Si

Phoned my local VW Dealer ealier today for a few bits, and got some prices. Throttle cable for 2.0 16v Corrado is £30.59 + VAT Part number is V536-721-555 Gearbox speedo sensor (VSS) is £25.46 + VAT Part number I think is V191-919-149D Clutch hydraulic metal pipe complete with flexi hose, VW only list the early one from 1989 to 1992 which is about £68.00 told me they no longer list the pipe for the later Corrado's from 1992 to 1996 So I'll probably make my own pipe up and use a brake flexi hose with female ends, so I'll be able to screw the pipe in at each end, this way only the flexi hose has to be replaced if it bursts and not the whole pipe, like on the original set up. Si

Hello Matt, I bought one of these off you in your last group buy in 2013, and it's a great product like you say it works much better than the original VW switch, and doesn't suffer from the extreme heat from the switch bulb as these new switches have a LED which is miles better. I'll take two please Matt for spares. VW RULE x2 PS, I've sent you a PM as well of the above. Thanks Matt Si
