rich86 0 Posted September 18, 2009 another productive day today after work, managed to get the dash out yay! :clap: that guide is pretty useful. after taking the dash out i finished off taken out the other plastic trims in the back and over the doors. also i noticed on my headlight wiring a wire has self destructed. looks like its been like it for some time check out the pics. guna see if i can re-pin it with a fresh better wire. you guys reccomend me checking or replacing anything while evrything is out? i.e heater matrix?

rich86 0 Posted September 20, 2009 past few days have been pretty productive. i have prepped and painted 75% of the interior plastics :D this weekend. have started putting some of it back in also. will get some pics up of the progress asap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich86 0 Posted September 22, 2009 have not been able to do much these past couple days, apart from check certain interior bits out to see if they broken. i would ideally need the whole passener vent minus ducting, and a centre console peice. or i would take the centre console vent slider thing (the oval peice that opens and closes) and the two seperate vents for that. if you could pm me with what you have great :cheers: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted September 22, 2009 Good work chap. May as well do the heater matrix while it's at that stage. Only another 20 minutes of work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted September 22, 2009 the headlight switch loom can be replaced quite easy, i found someone breaking a corrado and got one under a tenner. worth sticking an inline fuse in it too when you refit. nice job so far though.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rich86 0 Posted October 1, 2009 im going to need front and rear brake pads for my rado. i just need some standard pads for now until i do a complete overhaul in next half dozen months. i need it to be mot'd! buses are starting to see me off! lol any way heres the issue my rado is a 1990 1.8 16v on a g plate, has a 6 digit number plate also, non private. as you can see they are also completely different. i believe i know why one with abs and one without but how do i find out which i need without taking the out?

colinstubbs 0 Posted October 1, 2009 Mine is a G-plate Mar '90 and it has the top pads with the middle spring thing, If you look through your wheels at the calipers you should be able to see the spring bit through a gap in the middle of the top of the caliper. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
