  1. If you tilt the fuse box down, they should be visible above the relays. They sort of clip to the top of the fuse box, nd its quite possible that they've been dislodged over the years, so may be residing somewhere amongst the looms behind it.
  2. Gutted for you mate, I had no idea they were this bad! Can you not get a relatively cheap bare engine from a breaker, and call on a few friends to help you swap it over in return for a case of beer and a take away!? How soon do you need it doing, as I assume it the missus's daily? I'd happily give you a hand, but I won't be down and available for about a month if you can wait that long.

    Rear top mounts are obsolete, and the best alternative (which VW use incidentally) is Lemforder. I got mine from AVS Spares iirc. Fronts are still available, although pretty expensive tbh.
  4. When you see every post on this forum within 10 minutes of it being posted! :bonk:
  5. I'm moving to Plymouth on 15th of next month, but I'll see you at VW Festival as I'm driving up on the Saturday for the day. I had hoped to do the whole weekend, but the missus has put her foot down and said we have too much to do that weekend if we want to move on the Monday! I suppose she has a point........... :cowboy: Oh yeah, I do remember someone pulling out on me. It seems to happen more and more frequently though, some real idiots on the roads lately.
  6. Welcome to the forum! We have members from all over the world and everyone is welcome. Please make yourself at home and if you have any questions we'll do our best to answer them. :thumbleft:
  7. Was it Sunday around 5ish? A34 was closed so had to take a right detour to get home!
  8. Pretty sure these are obsolete mate so wouldn't get my hopes up.
  9. It joins right in the middle at the bottom. There should be a small metal piece that slots in and connects them together, but it's usually rotted out. I used a thin piece of aluminium to stop it happening again.
  10. More likely track rod ends. Get the car in the air and have a good look at each of them. You may need a pry bar to see if there's any excessive movement, but they're cheap and easy to replace if you need to.
  11. Shift mech arrived yesterday and all appears well. Thanks mate, much appreciated! :thumbleft:
  12. Do you not have the stock heatshield there? I know some didn't come with it fitted, so may be worth asking around the breaking threads for one if you don't have it mate. Edit; just noticed the G60 bit! Can you use the VR6 stock heatshield? May be worth investigating for that OE look.
  13. Great tyre choice, but have you considered 195/50/15 instead? If you're changing all 4, it offers a considerable saving as not many manufacturers make 205/50/15 anymore, and as such they're quite expensive. I believe the majority now run the slightly narrower tyre no no discernible difference in grip level even when "pushing on".
  14. Chris, Do you have any pics of the seatbelts? More specifically, I'm after a set that have the white labels intact and not freyed.
  15. Yep, 84 confirmed will be in attendance (provided they don't drop out at the last minute), so should be a cracking day with a real mixed bag of cars. Really looking forward to it.

  17. I thought Kips was sub 50k? Either way, if you don't realise the standard and value of a multiple concourse winner, then there's not much hope really!
  18. I think inters is aimed more toward the "scene" sort of crowd, so very few Corrados are in that sort of well, scene. The CCGB isn't really aimed at that area of the market as such tbh.
  19. It's not obvious in how to do it, and you have to give "valid reason", but it's just a menu so easy to get around unfortunately. Still a tidy sum though!
  20. That's a shame Jamie, although a great car so someone will get a cracker! Taken to the Porker then!?
  21. High bidder bid 6 times, and has now retracted his bids I'd imagine.
  22. It's punishing you for leaving it sitting so long! Not sure if a LHD one will fit, and I'd imagine the ports will be on the wrong side so you'd have to re-make the lines. Probably worth sending your original away for refurbishment as they can easily be rebuilt. As for the air ride, your on your own there I'm afraid!
