This is my corrado on Evolution Sports site https://www.evolutionsports.com/product ... 1#bigImage they are the standard Hella E code lights. As i said before, if you buy new lenses at the VW Dealer, you will get the nice clear look you want. The lense is designed to direct the light where you need it. Without it it's just like a flashlight putting light everywhere. U.S. lights are really foggy looking, no where near as clear as E codes. Sorry i don't have any better pics showing them then this: On MIke's Corrado, the clear fog lenses are Blazer brand covers. This is the alternative to replacing your cracked fogs with new ones. You cut off the old lense and glue on the universal cover.

Yes, Mike (the red corrado) has clear plastic in place of the E code lense. Here is a close up pic: https://www.evolutionsports.com/images/ ... 3_4222.jpg

You can use VR6 coilovers on a G60. I am running H&R VR6's on mine. All you need to do is use the VR6 upper front strut bearing. Everything else is the same between the two cars.

those are Ecodes, not U.S. spec lights. That is Bill S. old turbo VR6. My bet is if you guys bought new lenses, you get the look you are after :) And yes as stated above, U.S. lights are horrible. That is why we upgrade to your stock Euro lights ;)

Abt A23's 17x7.5 et 35mm with 8mm spacers in the rear

keep in mind that is the gen 1 bumper. Gen 2 uses a much simpler mounting system. No side brackets and bolts mount through the signal/fog recesses to the stock bumper support.

I've installed both the bonrath and scirocco mono wiper and both work well. For the extra money of the bonrath kit, it's not worth it to me. Here is my write up on the scirocco setup: http://www.corradocentral.com/monowiper.htm

nope, the charger gets it oil from the braided oil line mounted under the boost return tube.

remember offset is dependent on width. so the 40mm would work on a 7" wide wheel, while 35mm is for a 7.5".

any wattage over stock should be relayed. This will prevent any damage to the stock switch and wiring. I'm running PIAA 80/80 in the mains and 100W in the highs, great light output and no blinding of oncoming traffic (the key is to aim them right ;))

I don't like them on the Corrado.

Interesting, I love my H&R coilovers and they ride very smooth, firm but not as hard as Koni/Neuspeed Race spring set up I had before. Again, i'm sure it all depends on the type or roads you have near you, mine are in pretty good shape. H&R race springs are a nice product I for one would recommend them for someone who wants a linear spring rate and can give up some ride comfort for handling. The setup i recommend for people who want a some lowering with a firmer ride but not harsh is the H&R sport springs with Bilstein Sport shocks.

D.O.T. standards require them. You must have lights on all sides of the car to be seen at night. The rears wrap around enough that a rear maker isn't required but because of the front bumper design, an additional light is required. You must run amber up front and red in the rear. D.O.T. is responsible for all the crap we got here, the bad lights, the knee bars, automatic seatbelts, bumper redesign, etc. :( I have also heard RC's have been discontinued when the RGR's came out.. but I still see places selling the RC's.

they are on Ebay.com all the time, just ask the seller if they are willing to ship overseas.

remove the inner door panel and trace the wires from the lock down the inside of the door. You'll find the plug near the bottom.
