i would have to cut and weld shit, and i dont know how to weld so i would have to ask someone for help. soon though, soon.

[LukeyBabes]

Are they mk3 golf one then? Not much involved in making those fit. But yeah you need to cut and weld.

it's the boring updates that make the car run properly!

[LukeyBabes]

Thanks guys!

Im getting used to seeing this. lol



Starting to fit the cruise control and another little thing I just bought. Was wondering where this bracket went when I got the cruise. Made sense when I started putting it in. To relocate the warm up/idle regulator control box and hold the cruise control module. Fits nicely behind the centre console.



The yellow/white wire (second from the left) on the back of the black plug of the clocks is the one for the speed signal on a ce1 car. Goes to the stereo but most stereos don't use it.



And a new toy came in the post. Thought I might as well since I had the fusebox out.




Very easy to install as the wiring to the lights from the back of the fusebox is already there. Just need to plug it into this plug and then wire the power, earth, and power for the switch light in.



Got to love filling blank switches



Not sure where to wire the power though. As its a yellow wire, not sure if it should splice into the headlight wiring so it can only be adjusted with the lights on. Any knowledge that anyone wants to shoot my way on that?

Fitted up the motors today. Works lovely, but its just another thing I have but wont use, along with the electric mirrors lol.



And did a bit more wiring for the cruise control and finally got round to fitting the proper air con plug for the fuse box. the wires wont keep falling out now. lol

[LukeyBabes]

Ive been a bit busy.
Finished wiring up the cruise control and made the brackets and throttle linkage I was missing.

Template for the servo mount. Was trimmed a bit more after this though



Linkage



Brackets painted up in my favourite paint. High temp. Gives a really good finish.



And fitted.





Doesn't seem to work though. So need to do some fault finding. Could be anything. Looks nice though. lol.

[LukeyBabes]

Still can figure out the cruise control. But its either a wiring or control module fault as the pump and servo works. Need to get the multimeter from down my unit.

But the car is being raised and having new wheels fitted. Half for winter and half because iI want to be a bit more comfy.



I have way to many sets of wheels for this now. 4 sets with tyres and 1 set without. lol

Sick updates man. Loving the extras,I've a huge soft spot for oem add ons.

[LukeyBabes]

Thanks man

[LukeyBabes]

Cruise control working! So chuffed! It works really well!

Celebrated by giving the car a wash as its been absolutely filthy lately and taking picture before it gets raised for the new wheels.
