  1. This is where I got mine from, I have searched a fair bit too.. https://www.brickwerks.co.uk/horn-ring-t3-lt-and-t4-2598.html you'll need a stanley knife!
  2. bought a new turn ring for steering wheel and the updated version has extended plastic lugs which need shaving to fit the corrado steering wheel...
  3. has to be fine right, after all, its only the paintwork which lets the car down
  4. I wonder if the reserve has been met yet!
  5. when do you need them shifted by i can come by next time im in notts
  6. It's got whistling windscreen glass too. That's quite rare
  7. No problem! Thanks for the advice, I wasn't planning on running spacers, but I will do now. Hoping to only have run 10mm but also that's a bit optimistic! :)
  8. Wow. With that mileage mate you should be up at least at £1500!!! I'll take it if you don't want to wait to hit that price!
  9. So when I bought the car I had a broken broken bonnet cable, broken in 3 ****ing places. Broken at the handle (the S had snapped). Broken on the spring clip (hence the search and group buy). Broken on the nylon trumpet. On lunch today I stripped out the old bonnet cable and retain one of the original sheathings (the other had gone walkies too). Threaded it through the bulkhead and put it all back together with the metal trumpets from VW heritage. (top tip, if you have the first sheathing that sits along the rim you can use the metal trumpets from heritage without a screw) Had a nervous moment putting the bonnet retaining spring back in place and wrapped the puller in string to make sure it worked, and POP! Pops like a dream. Super productive couple of days. Then to the sour point. BILCOR informed me to my delight that my calipers might not sit in the wheel correctly and might need spacers. Turns out they do. Here we are for a look.
  10. i have 323 discs, time will tell. A job i'm saving for winter when i've had a summer out of it. Thx for the tip on the tyres 205/40 is the plan
  11. they're 17's so they'd better!
  12. tyres are a bit tooo large to fit under corrado i think 215/45
  13. swapped the oil pressure switch and took her for a blast down the m20. fixed it! so happy!!!!
  14. get that engine video on here, it sounds beautiful
  15. I was looking for a popcorn gif!
  16. Picked up some new wheels and stuck them in the garage for now until i sort out the pressure switch
  17. Took delivery of some BBS RC324's today. Will get them on a little later in the year when money is a bit more shored up. There's 215/40/17's on them and I'm unsure if they will rub.
  18. Sorry to bring car chat into this area but I think this was quite interesting. I bought my shocks from bilstein-shop.com (in NL) on the 8th of June or so. They including delivery cost me £530. Today they would cost £570. Wow.
