ABV-VR6 12 Posted October 26, 2020 Ya, that's how our cars came equipped from factory here in NA. Those two buttons, they do just attach (slides in and clip) to the heater panel. I deleted the A/C on my car and for me one of the challenge was to find a lighter trim without the holes which I did manage to find. Those two buttons for the A/C are still available new online. I sold all of the A/C setup except for the lighter trim of someone is interested in it let me know! Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cressa 44 Posted November 5, 2020 A very sad looking windscreen less Corrado, awaiting painting and sealing. 2nd time lucky for this windscreen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We've both had bad luck with our screens. In my case the fitter said he'd put a rubber block at the point it cracked so luckily for me he's fitting me a new one for free but I still have the same hassle as making sure my paint is repaired before the new one goes in (as i've had a full repaint too!)

_Matt_ 26 Posted November 10, 2020 Haha yes! Mine was re done yesterday. He got it out without damage and although it rained heavy last night it did not leak.Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cressa 44 Posted November 29, 2020 Took her out for a spin today over I the Peak District. Slippy day so I kept it sensible. I cant help but enjoy driving her, so she has to get dirty for me 😇😂 I did think about wrapping her up over the Winter, but as I have waited so long to drive her.... she needs to keep me interested. Plus it reminds me of the little jobs that i need to do for her Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cressa 44 Posted December 10, 2020 So, as I have a set of 15" Speedlines vs the 90s OZ 16" alloys.... which way do I go? Speedlines look great although the OZ do fill the gap better !!! Hmmm. Someone's going to get a refurbed set of cheap alloys soon 😊 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fla 9 Posted December 10, 2020 Very nice! I think the corrado mis underwheeled with 15s. 16s prob the best option. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted December 10, 2020 (edited) Im for the speelines out of the two above - bit unfair having the Speedline at the rear as that arch never fills as much as the front - car sits higher on rear axle= Matt Webb got some cracking alloys from speedline in 16 recently. . If that is your only set of speedlines keep em. Edited December 10, 2020 by Keyo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cressa 44 Posted December 11, 2020 Sent two of the Speedlines to the powdercoated. All balanced and I have just sealed them with some gtechniq wheel armour. If they make the rear ones look bad I will have to do those too😂 Also had the service done at VW today. They didn't do much but it was extremely cheap as they looked after me. All the technicians loved the Corrado 😇 Can anyone recommend a tyre gel to paint on. I did use a mates last time and it wasnt as messy on the alloy as the autoglym spray stuff And got the Corrado absolutely filthy driving her around in this horrendous weather 🙄. Great to be out in her though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted December 12, 2020 You're absolutely gonna do the other two! Lol. I use poor boys natural look gel on my tyres. You can use it on all interior and exterior rubber and plastics as well, it smells great, leaves a nice satin finish, and doesn't fling leaving greasy marks all over the arches and wheels.

1xshaunx1 27 Posted December 15, 2020 Don’t let AP Tyres near your centre caps. I got my speedlines on for winter too, sadly I can’t use them at the moment Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
