fla 9 Posted August 13, 2010 Just noticed a link to this site on another thread - some items are pretty cheap, but are they any good, or just cheap crap a la GSF, Euro??? I want to get some front ball joints for my spare set of hub knuckles. Plus those chrome door pins look nice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The owner (Les Bray) knows his stuff, as he has owned a Corrado which he has now passed onto his son - Really helpful if you have a query too. Ian.

fla 9 Posted August 13, 2010 Just spoke to Les, helpful chap. Ball joints made by a Danish company called Sterex - any experience of these or would the Febi ones be a better bet? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked about these a few months back and was told they are NOT Corrado badges but are a very close match and do fit the Rado ok. Rado badges are obsolete from VAG now.

Supercharged 2 Posted August 14, 2010 Yeah that's the MK2 one Dave - fits fine using the black rubber part of your existing badge. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted August 14, 2010 Can anyone confirm the MK2 rear badge will definately fit a Corrado OK (what is the difference is it just the rubber?), I know the item was posted as an example but I have heard they fit OK and with the Corrado item being unavailable..
