mrbeige 0 Posted May 11, 2008 Well, as it was a stunning day today, I thought I'd get the moonroof in. Everything was going great until I tried to manually open and close it to check it all moved ok, and SNAP, the guide on the left hand side gave way!! :mad2: :mad2: So I ended up putting the metal roof back in for now, and I'll have to order a repair kit from VW :pale: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted May 11, 2008 Gutted! :( Hate it when things like that happen- you feel like you've just wasted hours for nothing. Will be great when you finally get it done, and at least you've had plenty of practise ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not only has Gooney upset me, he's upset you too. :cuckoo: Getting the moonroof in was going to satisfy both you AND my desire to have that turbo in my garage and not on your desk!! :brickwall: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrbeige 0 Posted August 11, 2008 I know, I know guys. Just getting fed up with not being able to get on with it really. It's not really a lack of time, just a lack of funds at the mo, but that just gets on my t1ts to be fair. :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not really a lack of time, just a lack of funds at the mo, but that just gets on my t1ts to be fair. :( Bleed the brakes,get the MOT, spray the bonnet satin/matt black (or bring it to us to do), job done! Goony doesnt need a respray! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mic_VR 3 Posted August 11, 2008 Bleed the brakes,get the MOT, spray the bonnet satin/matt black (or bring it to us to do), job done! Goony doesnt need a respray! Hell yeah, that'll look awesome! Plus once you get it up and running and you're able to drive it again you'll feel completely different. Victory! :clap: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
