Too many wires plus I have to re paint my rad support, on sunday I dropped my hood down and I forgot my latch doesnt line up so now I have a nice dent and chipped paint :( . I will check my pics and see if I have pics though.

Ok Lee I found one. it's before I ran the wires threw the frame rails and and hooked any of them up actually that is the day after I got the engine in.

Gutted to hear about your bonet/hood though :(

You mean this :(

Not a hard fix at all but its just the fact it isn't perfect anymore, that was a new rad support too.

how did you get the wiring into the frame rails? Did you have to extend the loom?

[vwfastg60 0]

Lee, most people dril a few holes inside the car above the frame rail and run it otu to the end or make a hole in the wheelwell to pull the wires through.Thats if you dont want the harness showing in the bay.

 

Toffee, your car looks sick!!!! well done

I'm gonna go take pics for you know lee and show you the holes in the frame rail there OEM holes lol.

here you go, to pull the wires through was the tricky part I taped a washer to the wires then went fishing with a coat hanger lol it worked though

The more I see your car, the more I love that colour. My next car, whatever it may be, will be that colour. Its so different, but so nice!

 

Top work mate.

And its nice because its a factory colour - just not very common at all!

 

OE all the way! :)

[24V Renshaw 0]

Exactly.

The GF is going to be buying a MK4 golf soon. I have a funny feeling it might get a "toffee" respray :)
