Jon_vr6 1 Posted March 21, 2016 Just been trawling through vw heritages parts on ebay and noticed that they have 2 VDO oil and volt gauges available. For pricey sum of 367 quid. My my these have gone up but they are rare i suppose. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CORRADO-Display-unit-for-volts-and-oil-pressure-VDO-Late-Corrado-536919527-/182024841571?hash=item2a6186a963:g:wI0AAOSwQYZWwcWP Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted March 21, 2016 Was thinking about a set of these again recently - but at that sort of price they get ****ed! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanl82 23 Posted March 21, 2016 How much are they direct from Classic parts though, as thats where Heritage get their supply from. Maybe the price is dictated by them........... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robrado974 1 Posted March 21, 2016 Were these an optional extra at the time of production? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dude VR6 0 Posted March 21, 2016 I'll take two please, cheap at half the price "NOT" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JEZR 10 Posted May 21, 2016 I phoned them about these to ask if they had the wrong price! Then I wanted to know if that came with the loom and senders - nope. Does anyone know if there's a circuit diagram of the vdo unit about? I have a set that a mate is repairing and we need to see a diagram. http://www.allvinylexperience.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delfinis38 1 Posted May 24, 2016 Only one set left.... When their gone their gone...... Don't miss out. And 8 people watching... 7 people are going to miss out 😀 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JEZR 10 Posted May 24, 2016 Not at £366! http://www.allvinylexperience.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delfinis38 1 Posted May 24, 2016 Someone was mad enough to buy at that price. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JEZR 10 Posted May 24, 2016 I'll bet the other will go today. One gone, someone will jump. I'm hoping my £40 set will get fixed. It'll just cost a case of wine! http://www.allvinylexperience.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
delfinis38 1 Posted May 24, 2016 (edited) I bought my guages a few years back for about 170... But bought a sender recently from heritage.. I asked about the current price and it's been set by classic part... And yes only two sets were available at the time. They will sell at that price or as they are so rare being the only set will increase in price. I guess 360 isn't the actual price a 10% discount should be available to take in eBay selling fees. Doing it direct from heritage. Edited May 24, 2016 by delfinis38 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JEZR 10 Posted May 24, 2016 As an "investment", proportionately they'd be a better investment than a Corrado at this rate! Or is it a new pair of OEM roof rails? ! http://www.allvinylexperience.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 1 Posted May 24, 2016 Must be a market for a Chinese copy of the guages I was just thinking the same. We need to get 8vMatt on the case (he sorted out the replacement headlight switches) :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fla 9 Posted June 11, 2016 I was just thinking the same. We need to get 8vMatt on the case (he sorted out the replacement headlight switches) :) Yep this ^^^^ Tbh I find it absolutely ridiculous that certain items are given such an extortionate price which IMHO is totally unrelated to the product's actual value. As a comparison I sold my auto box which had about 50k miles on it for £60! I'm sure that some strips of plastic can't have a value three times that of a whole gearbox... but I guess it's what people are willing to pay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought it was steep at the time and didn't want to buy, but my old man persuaded me when he said he would go Dutch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
