Hi ABV, yes chap seems very good quality - I have not installed yet but pretty sure they will be fine- all the parts are obsolete so thought I would purchase them more for spares if needed and got discount for bulk buy. He discounts for group buy.
-
There actually one of the hardest parts to find for a Corrado VR6 and there is no aftermarket version - they are starting to go wrong and hell you aint going to get one for shite- best chance is to buy the cam with he sensor housed into it. Stealth says they are a big issue now.
-
Its all sorted now and they apologized but totally agree with your comments above - they need to up there game big time - getting delivered Monday so hopefully get it painted whilst the can is open at the paint shop .
-
Chap there is a sensor inside the block on the cam that is round . its not the crank , knock or cam sensor that houses into the block its actually an internal sensor. 021 905 163

Sorry this is a rant at Heritage so scroll on if you dont want a headache ha. Ordered spoonfed spoiler on the 4th August and they debited my account for £299.00 - - just got an email today saying we have your spoiler and you need to pay again - have had to send them statements and everything to prove the money left my account and stayed with them- their accounting and customer service is beyond a joke - proper bunch of amateurs- still not confirmed yet they have the money and all ready been on the phone at least 4 times with them over the last four months - its as simple as this, they say they dont have the money and you say- so if it left my account and has not been refunded on the statement and the statement lists you as been the receiver it has it just fell into a black hole- then ? sorry rant over but they are seriously incompetent. I could drop a couple of names here of staff which im not going to do but if you get them just hang up on them as they will cause you issues. VW Heritage I suggest you bring in some professionals to organise your accounting processes and bring a platform that works without causing your clients unnecessary stress , phone calls and emails , delays ! If something is not in stock do not take peoples money and hoard it for months on end - also if something says it is in stock and it is not then dont list it as that- bread and butter of an internet shop. Also not open Saturday morning what is that all about you are in the Motor Industry and folks day off and alike today not even anyone to answer the phone for me to tell you got my money now send me that spoiler you messes. So stop going down Bournemouth beach on a Saturday and open up shop you Beach Bums as most of us are industrial rats ha.

Not yet but im 100 percent fitting them with the front bumper off just in case they snag - also the seller asked what else shall I make and I told him we would all buy a sunroof repair kit - that would be a good thing to have spare in your parts for sure. Its great many parts are seemingly been manufactured by small businesses and in some cases the parts been upgraded- still pleny of improvement for body repair panels though and sunroof Another shockingly hard part to find is the sensor on the crank for a VR- engines are becoming very thin on the ground remember a load of these have been nicked for mk1 and mk2 conversions.,

The G13 is for the car and the Bombay is my antifreez- im not planning on making xmas cheao by spiking my guests 😀

Managed to get the final parts together for the final chapter of renovation. Will give an update on the radiator thread of the fitting of the Dasis radiator. Some nice chrome shinny bits courtesy of MGR Parts Poland . https://www.facebook.com/MGR-PARTS-102352814708229/

Also Fen its 4x50 watt so no extra amp needed .
-
You can adjust colour and light I believe- because its a Mk2 golf I had to splice into the heat dial illumination to make the loom the same as a corrado. Mate buy one at the day it combines the old with modern tech - what more could you want for a headunit - dab will be the only one eventually.
-
Can you not see it in the link above chap have made a video of it. My first observation was its more then a third shorter in deph then a standard unit and lightweight- which is surely a great thing for these delicate centre console trims- it comes with lots of grubbins like dab aerial - very small mic discrete - has locking keys-bluetooth-dab Lets be honest for a double din unit 10 years back they were up and over 1k and now been thrown away as have aged bad- this one will never age really - that was my man maths buying it. P.,s 30 year time served advanced scaffolder and went on to start up a scaffolding business 15 years ago its a risk V reward industry (bit like a corrado 😃 )

Treated the Valver to a joint 30th and Xmas present Audioscapes and Bremen Dab headunit. Rewired the Mk2 so it had the same plugs as a Corrado and it is a direct fit. After purchasing a gamma 3 that arrived from Lithuania posted it back as it was not working- thought sod it you know you want the Bremen and it is dab ready if the change over comes- also new not a 30 year old unit that is likely to fail. Video link of it fitted in my car. https://www.facebook.com/100005223245668/videos/1652324648284961/

Sure for a Mk2 golf you are spoilt rotten at a cost of a three course meal for a top quality rad. -
-
I was thinking that pretty sure you could mod it - maybe all air on rads came in copper as well for extra cooling ?
-
Ok just a quick check on German classics and it shows the manual ones available but not the auto. https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.de/en/fensterheber-3a2b24.html https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.de/en/fenstheber-39761b.html

Happich im sure I saw a new set the other day for 1K for sale no kidding.
-
Normally about 400 euro on German ebay if one comes up- German ebay is not cheap anymore - there seem to be even more rip off merchants over there. Facebook has a few Eastern European sellers that are the cheapest for rare parts. You didn't give yours away with your Mk2 ? - what happened to that car every Mk2 GTI in Ireland is 10k plus but quite often a good example.
-
Original for sale here- they do come as a complete unit secondhand very occasional for £350.00 . You can get a swg copy but they look horrible plastic and just look wrong IMO. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mk2-Golf-Centre-Console-Genuine-Votex-191061135/154231031854?hash=item23e8e2c82e:g:FgcAAOSw27dfzWCi

Sounds like his local postie is a member on here, post is crazy at the moment tbf.

I did chap but this one is for the Mk2 not sure Im going to fit it to the Mk2 to be honest as i have a G60 one which is a leather verion of the stock Mk2 wheel - I also have a cunning plan for a Rado wheel - bit of Nardi and Renewart combined 🧐 Fen Ive purchased some of the magic lotion it best work good mate .
-
Here are couple of rare bargain items I picked up in the last few months. Italovolanti 3 spoke steering wheel which appeared on a VAG accessory brochure which your dealer could put on your new car for either the Corrado or MK2 golf 16V - needs some TLC. MK2 Votex centre console for additional storage including VDO gauge cluster- I need to buy the gauge trim in RHD direction and switch trim but thankfully someone makes these Below is a picture of the three gauges I'm thinking of getting - have coolant plus oil temp all ready on MFA - open to suggestions.

Thanks chap - I sourced brackets, heatshield plus rear bumper Iron from classics via VW Heritage - the front splitter iron was only a couple left from a VAG Eastern European seller so grabbed one of the last ones available last year. All bolts and clips are available from classics or main dealer. If you have headlight washers you can still get the front bumper Iron as its a different part number then standard. . Its been done at the moment also new radiator going in - bonnet and bumpers painted because of stone chips. I should really start posting my job list of parts on this thread.

Would love to think so but the things they are screwed into are not new- youll never beat a factory fresh car or the smell of one 🤑
