Jim 2 Posted September 23, 2004 Hear that Magnecor are very good.. or good old OEM VW ones! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dinkus 10 Posted September 23, 2004 IIRC OEM VW ones are red Beru ones. They're supposed to be good, but they're not cheap Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted September 23, 2004 I'm sure someone had found a source for OE Beru red leads for not much more than a tenner a lead - i.e. about £60-70 the set... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a feeling it might have been from Ford? - http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12713 Not 100% sure, but it sounds likely :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dinkus 10 Posted September 24, 2004 £58.13 from http://www.vwspares.co.uk/corrado_electrical.html for beru leads Bargain! I think they're over £100 a set from the stealers! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted September 24, 2004 Yeah - not sure if they are the coilpack or distrib leads tho - can someone confirm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted September 24, 2004 Are the G60 Beru's red as well? Been thinking about some red leads to just add a bit of colour under the bonnet! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted September 24, 2004 Hmm. My Local Ford garage says HT leads 1/2 are £18.49 each others are £16.25 each .. which makes a lot more than the £70 or so other people have been quoted. They also quote £86.84 for the aux belt tensioner, so it sounds like even VW are cheaper! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_mat 0 Posted September 24, 2004 And having spoken to AVS the set for £58.13 is for distributor cars. The later cars have very slightly shorter leads (just a couple of cms each) and different ends - they have all-metal ends, rather than the metal/rubber combo on early cars. Hence a higher price: £67.82. Note these are not RED - they will be black leads, as far as the guy can tell me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
