This might help you make your decision. BBS a bit stretched but everything else !

I'm going to buy one and see what they are like , he says he owns a Rado so please don't booby trap my loom if you read this :bonk:

That's exactly why I opted for a highly optioned Mk7 GTI p/p over an R , cant beat the GTI for its iconic handling and branding. Even when the Golf rallye was about with the heavy all wheel drive the 16V wiped its ass. Can't say that anymore with the GTI and R but i'll still go for the GTI as loyal to the brand and has heritage. Love the club sport could be the best investment VAG car of all time.

HI Chris . Not to complicate this thread but I think the inner scrappers are in high demand also. I think with new and outer scrapers would make a huge difference. Would be great it you could buy all four off classics if you next contact them and possibly pass that on also. Thanks

If it the ebay one says its just for the headlights not including fogs , he is an electrician pervert by the looks of his other goods for sale, has probably modded all his lights.

Hi Shaun , Hope all is well have you fitted your seals yet mate, bet they lift the car nicely ? Are you on about the loom from Germany the expensive one ?

I will post a picture of the loom once the seller emails me over one, oh hold cant post on here grrrrr.

My x relief loom at the moment has spade mating on to the OE plug and can only see one Relay , it must be old as the connectors on the battery look at least 15 years old so must of been some of the first uprated looms. If it the ebay one says its just for the headlights not including fogs , he is an electrician expert by the looks of it so has probably modded all his lights.

I have asked the seller to post me a picture and also how many relays there are, does look like an English seller that has specialist electrics for sale and says he owns a Corrado so might be good.

Ive got a feeling it might be the same as the other one I have posted because it also advertises for the Golf MK2. Who was the member making these anyone remember ?

I bet he has VSR under his bed for a rainy day, more appreciation then a Rolex.

Are R32 parts now becoming thin on the ground like the Corrado , can you nick a lot parts of the Audi TT ? I actually nearly sold my Rado last week but pulled out of it because I was getting fed up with the cost of sourcing parts but decided to stay with her, totally agree with you they have come to an age when they need to be preserved. I have a Golf Mk2 16V its a joy to own parts are in an abundance, wings £60 new, bonnet £88 new a pure joy ha !

Just wish they would sort out the goddamn pictures for a start.

Do you still have any unicorn pars Kev , ie VDO gauges , schrick manifolds etc.

Another nightmare are the motorways, HGV numbers have gone up by 60 % since the boom of internet shopping, why oh why they didnt use the infrastructure of the old railways lines in the last 20 years or so to build the supermarkets etc is beyond me, and now they have shut the emergency lane in my city on the motorways with this crappy smart motorway system, so many people are going to be in fatal collisions with HGv when they brake down in the slow lane and there is now layby to rest in. Horrific planning from central government, for christ sake I use do scaffolding in the old rover works and they even had their own railway that loaded the cars, we have gone backwards.

I'm not 100 percent sure, I think the chap is called Toby, others will know better , members are concerned about the survival of the site , there is a thread about the future of the forum that is on here a couple of months back.

Yeah same as me, you get lucky after 20 hrs and 10 password resets it's a headache. Members have been unable to post pictures on here for the last month or two and as you know a picture can tell a million words so a real pain to be honest. Occasionally you see a member has posted a picture but it wont let me do it and the majority of members.

Agreed the guy that did my MOT yesterday was telling me how his Cavalier Turbo was written off by a lady who didn't see him because of the sun in her eyes, however at the same time was logging in to facebook on her Iphone whilst putting on here lipstick and sipping a coffee at the same time.

Thanks Fen , my budget does not cover for that much but Im sure you have found the best one on the market! Anyone else come up with anything ? Im sure I read on here that a member was making them ? Found this as well off ebay ??? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Corrado-Mk-2-Golf-Uprated-Headlight-Wiring-Loom-Upgrade-Headlights/322309016982?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144

Same here had the same problems logging in the last 24 hrs. I found for some reason that if you tick the remember me box after filling your password and email in it would then let me log in.

What is the going rate for a stock engine VR6 rebuild these days, say if you was going up to enlarge the old bores 2.9 to 3.0 liters, head refreshed etc. Jared any ideas or anyone else /.

The passenger side main beam light is working intermittently , I have an old aftermarket upgraded loom on it and I have to wiggle the cable near to the relay and it sorts it out. Was just wondering , have seen soom uprated looms on ebay for about £25.00 , does anyone know the best one available on the market at the moment and where to source it? Here is the one on ebay. Is this the best one to buy https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vw-golf-mk1-mk2-mk3-uprated-headlight-loom-harness-corrado-gti-Scirocco-Vento/292804895796?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144 Thanks

Got to say Im no expert on this matter but a lighter Corrado with a four cylinder block is not that much difference then a Mk2 Golf which the majority had no ABS I believe, so maybe not a bad call to remove the abs system because there are so many damn thighs to go wrong. In regards to the VR much heavier and more power so it would probably be a bad idea to remove. On another note My VR passed with no advisories today so very happy that have a years green card.

Ok Just to confirm my piggy ECU is grey as well.

Just thought about this and no because the signal from the ECU initially triggers the air container that releases pressure to lift the solenoid flap it that makes sense.
