i will get some pics & post them up - TBF i do love the black alcantera above head in comparison to the factory grey

FYI i had my sun visors trimmed in alcantera when i had the headliner done - they did it as a sleeve which was stitched over the top & i was able to simple click them back in place

hi m8 i think the centre part pops out of the round adjuster - either that or it just pops off & the bolt is underneath

hi phil as per my reply to dave there are currently no looms available but i may be able to organise another run in the future

hi dave the last run was completed in july - at present there are no plans for another but if the numbers build i can ask the maker if he will do another normally need 10+ looms required i will keep an eye on this thread for requests

ive had my V1's for almost 90k miles now & love them the ride & performance they give you is great & on proper tarmac surfaces they are super smooth however, UK roads are terrible, most here know 17's kill the ride quality on a rado & also if your running gear & bushes etc are worn then ride quality can be terrible

hi keyo - thanks for the info - does that guy fit them as well? im not far from him hopefully thanks

im in a similar position, although i believe i need Cat1 for agreed value next year i had a ring round end of last year & a few places were mentioning Sigma but what they were telling me didnt sit right when i 1st brought the 16v 20 odd years ago i had a mobile installer come & fit an alarm/immob to it - i remember it well as it was he who showed me how to tell if a car has "closure" capabilities. the early models only close the windows when lock the door & hold the key in lock position, late models do sunroof as well. the point of this was he said he only had to attach 1 wire to the Sigma system & it would operate the full closure via the key fob skip to 20 years later & the last place i spoke to was saying i needed expensive additional controller boxes for a Sigma alarm to give full closure - the guy was even questioning if i knew my car had it built in as such i shant be using that place but i am hoping to find a solution this month so will post anything i find

hi m8 i have checked the wikky & the links worked for me - the site currently doesnt like some newer web browsers i have to use MS Edge as Brave wont work properly try this link for your issue Fan speed thermal fuse repair - THE Corrado Forum Knowledge Base (the-corrado.net) this was the fix we have stored for the fan speed 4 issue let me know if you can get it to load ok?

it is so annoying isnt it! we purposely park as far away as possible & someone always end up by you even in an empty car park

im the same with both of mine i used to go & collect wood cut offs for the fire in the 16v & would just pile it in the back

absolutely! hence why i pulled the dash out of the 16v twice as the 1st time i did the matrix but not the heater box relining - big mistake

hmmm - ive thought about it but apart from a slight hand brake improvement is there any other point? im more refreshing underneath rather than nut & bolt resto lots of hardware & solid items & things that are OK to re-use will be used again ive also got to account for a new Cat1 with full closure - anyone have any ideas on brand & model choices? im thinking Sigma but the last place i spoke to was saying need extra boxes for the full closure, whereas i recall the guy who fitted the Sigma on my 16v many years ago say he only needed to connect 1 wire to enable full closure i also need to get the Modena's painted, rebuilt & tyres put on them - oh yeah & bolt on spacers front & rear

thanks everyone i will have a good read through

thanks MJA - id not found that page on LLL good shout about the alternator too, mine could definitely do with a refub - do you have a record of how much it cost with them? i was thinking of new wishbones as not sure how the originals would be after sand blasting - any reason you say to refurb existing than buy new? yeah im aware it is going to be hunting around for lots of parts, im used to it after all these years with a corrado lol im sending it to my mechanic for the work, too much for me to do on a driveway
