What's the difference between lhd or rhd? Laid flat 2 seem flat whilst the other one i found is still in its original package.

Right, Just been going through another box of bits i unearthed that's been sitting for 10 years, inside i find a set of new roof trims, are they worth anything? The only things missing are 3 plastic locators that insert under the roof locating pins.

Keep them aside for me 'till April as i'm going to go over to the UK then so i'll bring back a load of 'raddo bits from my brother's gaff.. Chris,Can you get hold of a bloody 02j shifter tower mate? Cheers.

Right, I've got a few spare headlamps with UK glasses that i keep trippin over, Does anyone have a spare golf 4 02J gearbox shifter they don't need and are willing to swap? I can't be arsed to troll around breakers and they rarely come up on eBay. Two headlamps with all tabs, good condition glass and good adjusters for the shifter tower. Cheers.

I've reused mine loads of times, even on turboed motors, just remember to coat the in copper grease and that, obviously, they aren't damaged or torn. It's the crap small nuts that aren't up to it, i prefer 13mm turbocharger copper nuts. Forgot to mention that the little fekkers are quite expensive too..

Hey Andy, I checked one spare head i've got down in my celler but it's an old 1.8 KR valver head with the older brown mechanical sensor. Tomorrow after work i'll dig out another 9A head and check.

I'll check an old 16v 9A head i've got spare and if the sendor's still attached i'll pop it in the post. Send me your full address.

Hi matey, What else does it do? ABS? is it for a valver or g60? Any form of instruction manual with it? Thanks.

PM sent.

Right chimps, How much are you lot paying on your annual road tax? Any difference between a Vr6 and 1.8 16valver? I have to pay, every year, without fail E420.. God help you if you own a 2.9 Vr6 as here in Italy road tax is based on engine cc.. My corrado hasn't moved a wheel in nearly 6 years, been sitting in my private garage since '09 minus engine. SORN it i hear you say? yeah, shame that here it don't exist so whether it's on the road or off the Italian governing scumbags could'nt give a flyin fuk.. you pay regardless!! Effing absurd law, my corrado in six years has cost me nearly E3000 Euro in road tax alone WITHOUT ITS WHEELS TOUCHING PUBLIC ROADS!!!!

Late or early type of handle mate? There are two different types of barrel available, unfortunatly they can't be interchanged, one version has these tiny locating tabs cast into the lock barrel part of the handle, god knows what purpose they served whilst the other, more common type don't have these lugs. I've got a bag full of the little buggers so if you ldt me know which type of handle your car has i'll see if i've got a good 'un for you.

God i feel like shiyte, been in bed for two days now and it's doing my head in.. I caught this bloody virus in ONE day! Anyway, here's to a happy new year you lot.

Happy new year to all!

Packed it up today mate, before i forget, don't forget the tiny set screw that's located underneath the swivel bit of the mirror and spray some wd40 or similuer onto those little bastid connectors for the heated element, i buggered one mirror glass today removingvit.. I'll try posting it out monday morning.

No payment nessesary mate, christmas prezzy for you, PM sent through.

3 screws inside the housing that screw the black bit onto the mirror housing. Remember to be very carefull when removing the mirror glass though, pulling off the glass can crack it, watch out for corroded spade terminals for the heated glass aswell.. Be extra carefull whilst pushing back on the mirror glass that snaps into place, i always put a dab of silicone grease on the 4 plastic outer locating 'ears' to avoid cracking the glass, try not to push the outer parts of the glass as i remember cracking a few like this..but with the grease applied you should be fine.

Got loads of spare/broken mirrors matey. If your not in a hurry i'll pop one in the post for ya, might take a while to get there'cos i'm in Rome..

Well merry xmas you bunch of grumpy gits..

Hey Lukas, hope your well mate! Depends if you have A/C or not but i'm pretty sure that the hose connections are the same. If you do have air conditioning fitted the rad would be like a G60 version, about 600mm long with different coolant hoses. I'm throwing out a 16v radiator that you could have mate, do you want me to get a few photos of it so you can see if it's suitable? Cheers, Andrew.

Any luck on postage mate?

Hey Tom, Well of course you don't need any bits, you've got a container full of them..! I just read your for sale ad. Did you manage to sell the vr6 'raddo photoed and all the boxes of bits?? Just out of curiousty, what green is your vr6 LC6V?

Hey Tom, No mate, just the two inner driveshaft cups. Cheers.

Hi Tom., That's great! Only problem is that i'm in Rome, Italy.. Are the cups still attached to the gearbox? If you can, get me a price on postage. Do you need anything for your'raddo mate? as i've got a fair amount of spares, maybe we could swap bits? Thanks!

Right then, Looks like i now need 2 inner drivshaft cups for my 02A's gearbox. Anyone got a buggered 02A 'box with 2 good nick spares for me?? Let me know chimps. Ta.
