Small wins. 😉😆

Yep, the OE switches are known to get very hot and break down, and it has been known to cause fires in the past. The inline fuse helps guard against that, and I fitted one too. I'd replace the fuse as it may have blown for a reason, rather than bypassing it. If it goes again, it could be an indication that your switch has had it so keep an eye out.

Is this correct? The fuel pump relay energises before the engine cranks. Same with the ECU relay. If you remove the fuse box cover, just put your finger on the casing of relays 67 or 167, & 108. You'll feel it ping as it energises so you'll know that power is attempting to be supplied there.

Thanks for posting. It might be difficult for us guys in the UK to obtain the Mercury Cougar ones anyway, but the Ford Fiesta will be in abundance. There is someone here who is in correspondence with VW Classic Parts, and they've declared a willingness to produce a run for both sides dependant on numbers. Think there are around 60 so far, but if the same could be done in the States (assuming that's where you're from) I'm sure it would push it over the line for minimum orders required....

Yep, that sounds right. 👍

Yeah first click should be low beam, second main beam. Just disconnect the yellow plug for the resistor. I've just left home but can get some pics later if you like

👍

Yeah my dim dip resistor is disconnected.

I've got the rayne automotive loom too. My dim dip is disconnected, and I've never had an issue with MOT. As long as you have side lights, main beam and high beam then it conforms to legal requirements

Really!? Mine are still there in excellent shape, and were removed/refitted with new clips when I had the respray.

Says for vehicles with A/C

As title, does anyone have one fitted, do they fit under the Corrado seats and are they any good? I've got infinity components in the front door pockets and JBL 6x4s in the rear shelf, and though the sound is now much crisper there is next to zero base. I'm not after anything daft, just something similar to a modern day car sound system which I think a small sub should give me. I'm after an active one (integrated amp) that plugs directly to the stereo ideally. I don't want to be running power cables from the battery etc as I don't need big power, just something nice and simple that can be hidden and will add something without spending big. Any recommendations welcome. 👍

👍

Fuel cap locking? I know it'll keep going if it senses low vacuum pressure at the locks, so could be linked to that?

Wow, that stuff looks fantastic! How strong does repair feel?

Oil supply or return hose and tap the sump I believe, and obviously a remap or standalone ECU. Charge cooler and associated pipework/mocal oil cooler. I'm not certain all of these are required if low boost, but something to think about. If a charge cooler is required, I don't think you'll be able to retain the A/C

Spot on, thanks mate. They have the Lockyear logo for the sticker listed so shouldn't be an issue producing the plates hopefully. I'll fire them a message and ask. I have the original tax disk holder surprisingly.

Great attention to detail there mate! 👌 Where did you get your dealer plates? I've seen the window sticker from DMB but not sure if they do plates as well. Something I'd like to get too. 👍

Think they're 25 as mentioned. Not at home to check til tomorrow though unfortunately. It's definitely in the Bentley though.

Oh I see! I wasn't paying attention properly on the links so didn't notice the bits on the side. 😖 Thinking about it now, If I remember correctly there are cutouts on the chassis legs that receive the speed nuts which, I imagine the undertray would bolt up to.....

Ah ok fair enough. I had a MK3 GTI 8v which from what I can remember, didn't have an undertray so speculation on my behalf. I thought the chassis legs would be too high as they rise up in the engine bay, to be able to mount an undertray to them.

Fair point, but I suppose it depends where the mounting points are. The subframe will be the same as a MK3 which I think will be where it bolts too, along with the x-member or front bumper.

I agree mate, really frustrating when if you do have to run it in the wet, the filth ends up coating even the bonnet soundproofing it's so bad! I think being plus axle, it's more likely to be MK3 for fixing points at the front

Yeah I love the 964 too. Think it's the wraparound rear light strip that I like so much which is common on both. I remember as a kid, my Grandads mate had one and took me out for a spin. The butterflies in my stomach as he accelerated had me hooked then! Lol

Those nice shiny bits in the bay were fitted in 2014/15. I had to run it as a daily for about 3 months in 2016 which was a bit upsetting at the state of it afterwards! 😞
