Toby 0 Posted October 20, 2003 Does anyone know if it's the early (3A0 857 555) or late (3B0 858 555) one that fits the corrado best? Thanks Toby Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted October 29, 2003 dunno, but I fitted a passat centre sun visor to mine 357 857 555 (6FD grey) dead handy for stopping the sun over the rear view mirror. about 12 quid plus VAT from stealers, or free from a scrappy :D :D :D clips on to front of sun-roof motor cover. David. Does anyone know if it's the early (3A0 857 555) or late (3B0 858 555) one that fits the corrado best? Thanks Toby Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil K 0 Posted November 14, 2005 They don't fit the late style interiors too well though :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gradeAfailure 0 Posted November 14, 2005 Yeah, don't they hit the rear-view mirror or something...? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted November 14, 2005 Yeah there just isn't the clearance :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted November 14, 2005 got these on BOTH of my Corrados... 8) I'll dig out the part numbers from them tonight as both cars interiors are currently in my living room (don't ask... :oops: ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stan 24v 0 Posted November 14, 2005 Any joy with the numbers mate? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taggart 0 Posted November 14, 2005 Could have done with one of these earlier on! Just the time of year when the sun is lower longer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted November 15, 2005 sorry, didn't go home last night, will dig 'em out tonight or at the weekend 'cos I'm off to Paris/Eurodisney with work tomorrow... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ben16v 0 Posted November 17, 2005 357 857 555 obsolete now, will check the other part no`s tomorrow, although by the look of it the 3a0 857 555 (1994) centre sunvisor will be over £30 quid from dealers!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted November 18, 2005 I wonder if the later one will fit a later C better... hmmm, very interested to find out 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted November 18, 2005 I wonder if the later one will fit a later C better... hmmm, very interested to find out 8) I don't see the problem with it being a bit too long and touching the mirror when down, all you want is it to fold up OK and then pull down to block out the sun, and it does that just fine??? Think there's a 94 passat with SR in a scrappy near me, will investigate tomorrow. David. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JMC 0 Posted January 23, 2007 Thread revival time. Did anyone get to the bottom of which ones fit (or are the best fit), as I'd love to get one of these?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ben16v 0 Posted January 23, 2007 i bought davidworts off him and yeah it does tough the top of the mirror when down but IMO its a perfect fit so no sun gets through and when it flips up you cant see it, couple of pics in my gallery (last page i think) dead handy at this time of year Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

herisites 0 Posted January 26, 2007 So which passat do these come out of? I need to rob some parts off an old passat for my C so if its the same one i may as well rob one of these :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted January 26, 2007 So which passat do these come out of? I need to rob some parts off an old passat for my C so if its the same one i may as well rob one of these :D various, usually the higher spec ones, both 1988-92 and the later facelifted ones up to the new model in 1996. It's generally the later 93-95 cars I've seen them on though. VW were still selling them up to a few years ago for about 13 quid, but I believe someone mentioned they are now discontinued.
