  1. I'll just have to use the country roads now then :D and a sat nav with camera positions. What spectrum frequency do these use do you reckon? infra red? they cant use visible light as the headlights would over power them.
  2. I am looking for a really quality sound for my corrado, a full range, kind of as the producer heard rather than big bass etc. while keeping the car looking unmodified I was thinking of an Alpine 9887r headunit with the Infinity Kappa range 13cm speakers for the door, 10cm speakers in the dashboard to replace Tweeter? if thats what they are and, as a previous owner has cut the parcel shelf, Kappa 6x9s in there. Not knowing too much about setting an ICE system, does that sound about right? has the 9887r been updated as it seems that someplaces no longer stock it. Thanks in advance for any advice given
  3. Hello Frankie, Im sorry I didnt get back to you sooner I havent been on thhis site for ages. I promised Adam some photos of the Corrado but I never seem to use the 35mm camera any more. I will just email you pictures. The Storm is a very cherished little car and is still very much in use. The repairs are spot on and it does get the comments it deserves. I dont know which garage you went to but the biggest problem I had was that who ever put the front wheels back on must have use the air gun at full torque. We had massive problems getting the normal bolts of whch made it extremely differcult getting the security bolts off. Really good to hear from you
  4. OOOOOh right, I see and there I was thinking I had a simple solution. How about scouting tescos for an unsuspecting Corrado owner? :|
  5. Can't you just go to Halfords or whichever stockist and try it, even if you buy it and take back as unsuitable?
  6. Are this still available, if so, can you put me down for one?

    Sunroof runners

    Brilliant, thanks for the ARZ-tuning pointer. We contacted the VW main agents with the part number and suddenly they stocked that part, so it is now on order. Will let you know how it works out if anyone is interested.

    Sunroof runners

    Is there a repair kit for the sunroof runners? I have attached an picture of the mechanism, although it does look more like one of those images from the sky. I'm not the one who is working on it but I am told that the plastic runner parts are worn which is making the sunroof move out of line and then jam up. The person working on it did phone VW main agent and they were saying they dont supply ant repair kits at all for a car of this age since about a year ago. Thanks in advance
  9. Hello peoples, Does anyone know anything about this particular Green Corrado Storm N506WNF, The main reason is, I would like to find out if the previous owner has the wheel lock nut adapter. :) If not, my next post will be Does anyone know how the ahem you get them off without an adapter? Thanks in advance
  10. My 94 VR6 Corrado is going for, pretty much, a full rebuild of the engine, gearbox, other bits related to those, repairs to sunroof, heater bits etc. Can someone tell me whether there is a manual which will list how to do all these and the bolt torque settings etc so I can give this to the garage to make sure it is all done correctly. Is there a VW mechanics version or did Haynes do one? Thanks for any help
  11. Did anyone try these injectors? And why would I use 440cc rather than 240cc. Will they be less fuel efficient / significantly more powerful?
  12. Has anyone mentioned that ex lease cars are going for sweet pennies at car auctions at the moment as dealers dont particularly want to hold on to them to depreciate on their forecourts. Might worth having a few cars in mind and going to one of the prestige sales.

  14. I have just bought the wipers & blades from my local Audi dealership and was quoted £111 but when I collected and told the guy it was for a corrado (when asked why i needed two, turns out he used to have one) he gave a customer loyalty discount which brought them down to £94. I dont know if that helps with the £83 if that doesnt include postage.
  15. Thank you for that although I did have to go to Wikipedia to understand closed cell and open cell :dorky:
