Here is the website search part number- I think they have sold out and now obsolete and last few are now with aftermarket sellers asking four times the cost. Ironically I scrapped what was left of a Corrado a week back - the only thing left was a windscreen and that clip and inner panels- little did I know it could of topped up my pension account with that clip 😀 Cressa did your new windscreen come with the clip mounted on the screen from Sekurit ? https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.de/en/

I was wondering what happened to Audioscape? I found a phone number for them off another forum called Talk Audio. I googled the phone number and found that it led me to a trimmer supplier. There stock is quality at a good price from insulation of all kinds - healinners- and the highest extreme temp adhesive I have come across . AS Trim essentials. https://www.as-trim.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=8_48&products_id=99 This looks better then the Hermitage stuff and cheaper. https://www.as-trim.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=8_48&products_id=99

Sounds like your mechanic might of snapped the mirror and purchased a new one off ebay that are very cheap to be honest- as mentioned clean the terminals inside the switch with some contact cleaner and a cotton bud - make sure when you open it you dont misplace the small springs which are near impossible to find on the floor if dropped.

It must be glued on and the sticker is to hide it from outside of car I imagine- how bad is your windscreen - the clip is very expensive Between £40-£50 only last couple left was £11.00 earlier this year. . - if your windscreen is old with faults it might be better to use insurance and get new screen with clip (make sure screen comes with clip). Maybe VW dealer sells for cheaper the clip.

The windscreen should have a circular bracket part number 535845543 that it clicks onto. Comes on new windscreen. Look on photos of ebay link. https://www.ebay.de/itm/VW-Corrado-53I-Frontscheibe-Windschutzscheibe-grun-Blaukeil-Sh-Autoglas-Glas-neu/153836343153?hash=item23d15c4f71:g:wKUAAOSwFZNeSvSK

Yes I have many parts form a 2.0 A including the head +block + refurbished manifold + O2a gearbox with 16v gearing. upper and lower and many other parts . Engine came out of a Corrado a few weeks back and have a video of it running. I will send you an email with my contact details- based in the Midlands.

Unlucky mate that tends to mean they are down to the last few so price high- luckily for the VR thay under half that price even though when at the dealers they were £600- . Glad to hear you finally sorted it.

I would want to wait a couple of weeks for the lacquer to harden before window installation. Por would be good stuff to paint as your meant not to be able to chip it .

Cool chap I do like a set of rubber mats myself - would love a set of the Votex ones if anyone has any for sale without damage. In regards to the valuation pictures just make sure you announce every mod to the insurance as they will have pictures of your car to catch you out if you missed anything - I also had the mods listed on the car history file and cost) also gave a link to the Blackberry that sold for 17.2 K earlier this year and also a link to the Campaign on 35k - also the last registered car that sold for 21k from memory. Remember they can check from your factory sticker what your came with from Karmann. Some might notice how many photos I took of paperwork - this is the key IMO as it proves what renovation work has been done to the car and covering your personal loss god forbid anything happens.

Spent the morning doing the extremely tedious task of completing the valuation form- will update the amount of valuation I went for and what and what they agreed . Went with Lancaster same who valued agreed the value at 19K for Mk2 golf- good thing is they only make you send the valuation every 2 years unlike others that are annual. These are the pictures I sent them fingers crossed .

There is a genuine set on ebay at the moment 15 nippers mate but in grey I think- dont look in to bad nick with some tlc. Bit of hokery pokery will be very nice .

This might be help to people.

Sure chap they come new with decals but they fall off pretty quick as rubber has petroleum in them and has bad adhesion - I got these decals made chap. In the Golf Mk2 world these mats sell for £160 = the Corrado world aint tweeked on yet so they are a bargain at the moment- the best ever sets were the Votex carpet and rubber mix - pure quailty.

You did so mate - as you say your getting on a bit. 😀

Could well be the circular copper contact behind the dial needs pulling out a little.

To be honest mate you recommended it me and I can honestly say it is a fantastic product.

Been doing a little bit of restoration on x 3 sets of rubber Corrado factory mats with Gummi + new decals which are often missing and a few sets of gutter trims using new d shape rubbers and 3 m tape at the bottom. Gutter trims tested as I did a friends set and fit perfect- beats the £350 for a new set hey ! If you have missing ends you can still buy the parts to make them up cheap from Classics or Heritage.

Fen that unit is called the deluxe audio. P.s not my video on the phone lol.

I knew you would like that Fen - think it is basically an aux= I know a lad in the UK who owns one, which his mate in the USA posted to him. See what you mean about the complete CD speaker system - very pricey and speakers like moths . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Gamma-3-CD-USA-model-with-original-Aktiv-system-and-original-Cd-support-/254207330408

Yes I like the original; Bremenl unit think it was used in Porsche and Merc. Becker use to be a good brand as well - was it called the Becker Mexico. was pretty much NO1.

Cool mate Gamma 3 cost around £200 in Europe so im still waiting for a bargain Gamma 3 or perhaps still the modern Blaupunkt Bremen. Gamma 4 around £100 on Europe.

Im actually on the hunt myself for Gamma 3 for my Mk2 golf as its 91 model- I know for a fact that Gamma 3 came on USA Corrado in till about 93 so is correct factory unit but after Gamma 4 . Gamma 3 tend to be double the price as gamma 4 as rarer because I suppose older and less for sale.

Your getting it wrong chap Im saying yes to Gamma 3 I like it - the picture above is a very rare version of Gamma 3. its with a CD input to right bottom of it- so I set you a challenge see if you can find one. English slang when you say OK you win means Ok agree with you. Don't worry about Shaun he wears one yellow sock and one green . 🙂

It has the CD point very rare they never come with them so very sought after.
