MikeVR6 0 Posted February 18, 2005 Ok. On my last Corrado ('91 16v) I had black leather, black carpet, black dash. Made it a bit dull so I brightened it up with chrome handbrake cover, gearknob, door handles and door lock pins. Nothing Chavy. :) All from Trimsport. Quite fancy doing the same to my VR6. Gearknob's sorted. Reiger Illuminated Shifter and Boot Anyone know where I can get chromed interior door handles? Which handbrake handles fit? Who sells nice looking door pins. I'm going to get a nice Momo wheel but unsure of which one to go for? I'll be fitting a Snap Off boss. Are these easy enough to fit? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60Jet 1 Posted February 18, 2005 MikeVR6, Chromed door handles are often on ebay, and can be purchased fro mthe main dealers to i think from a later golf. Door pins... remove them and fit blue LEDs. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fla 9 Posted February 18, 2005 Yep, I've just ordered those handles and the guy is very helpful, great to deal with. First thought they were chrome coated plastic but they are apparently metal (steel probably) Will let you know how they look when they arrive. Door lock pins - I got a set also from Ebay, which were plastic, but chromed and dont look too bad - they're quite widely available for about a fiver. They're still in their box as I alos got some alloy ones which I prefer (fitted to the car at the mo) but the the plastic lock surround now looks really crap. Will try and get some alloy ones machined in the summer to match. BTW I've got a beige leather interior. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted February 18, 2005 snap off kit really easy to do about 15 min job max, momo have just released a new millenium steering wheel it looks well nice :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggrim 0 Posted February 18, 2005 You can also get the chrome or brushed effect twisty heater dials if you have the late style interior. Trimsport do em i think Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MikeVR6 0 Posted February 18, 2005 Thanks chaps. Not so keen on the heater controls. Bit too bling for me. Trimsport told me the Mk3 door handles wouldn't fit :( Anyone recommend a cheap supplier for Momo stuff? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted February 18, 2005 suprisingly Halfords (well, ripspeed anyways) are actually pretty good price wise on Momo stuff... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazymarcel 0 Posted February 19, 2005 I dint think mk3 golf handles fitted Corrado's That advert says for Corrado's 89 - 95, I thought the earlier Corrado's used different handles then the later ones, so someones gonna be dissapointed. Still havent seen any later metal Corrado handles for sale anywhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted February 19, 2005 suprisingly Halfords (well, ripspeed anyways) are actually pretty good price wise on Momo stuff... Yep, just bought the 'Tuner' steering wheel for £63.99 and got a free £10 voucher! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted March 29, 2005 I dint think mk3 golf handles fitted Corrado's Too right mate - they dont. I've got a 94 VR and these had a slightly different hinge area. I dont know if they would fit the earlier style handles though. They were very well made and finished - p***es me off even more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dec 1 Posted March 29, 2005 Early handles (on mine anyway) are a different shape than those Golf handles! Sorry boss! Sure just stick them back on E-Bay! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60Jet 1 Posted March 29, 2005 how about at chrome Karmann badge for the gear stick surround. its easy to do. all you do is peal the black bit off and your left with a nice shinny karmann badge. not a lot of people know that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Storm 0 Posted March 29, 2005 If you look at the new Fraud Focus, all the alloy stuff inside is painted plastic. You have to lokk really close though its done so well. Someone must be selling this paint somewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted March 29, 2005 Guys those handles are just off a mk3.5 cab, they are only £7 each from VW but do not fit the Corrado anyway! Good upgrade for a mk3 Golf tho... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted March 30, 2005 Guys those handles are just off a mk3.5 cab, they are only £7 each from VW but do not fit the Corrado anyway! Good upgrade for a mk3 Golf tho... The early Corrado interior uses mk2 golf door handles, these were also used on the pre 1988 Passat which has chrome handles on the GL5 model front and rear doors, so find a Passat GL5 in a scrappy and bag yourself two sets!

BigTartanJudge 0 Posted March 30, 2005 I got my set from trimsport last year, they said probably wouldn't fit as I had early interior, but there was no issues at all, £18 delivered and adds a nice touch ! Cheers, BigEastSideTartanTimmehG60 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
