    I made a new version of the mounting plates. Picked up the unix tie rod flip and ball joint extenders, and started assembling the 11" corrado g60 brake upgrade

    Sure thing. I am working on this very slowly but surely. The quality is great. Also the team at ocd is very supportive and responsive.

    Mocked up a version 2 of the mounting plates. They seem to fit well. Now to wrap em with carpet. Any suggestions on which carpet looks like oem VW trunk carpet.

    Also installed some r32 control arm bushings

    Rear end is coming together. Now I need to make it all pretty. Mk2 gli rear beam, banchwerks drop plates, mk3 discs, mk4 calipers, lines and parking brake cables, neuspeed rear sway, bagsbyocd , and airlift leader lines

    Got some new goodies. Next it’s time to save for management. Hoping to go with airlift 3h. The folks at only charged dubs in the uk were super nice and helpful.

    oh wow. didnt see that. looking super scene lol. I sold the lsd and recaros out of it to 2002 guys since it wasnt selling and dropped the price. Current dude is asking quite a bit lol.
    yeah thats what i thought especially as it doesn't have an exhaust and needs to be smoked.

    if it had the recurs and how it was when you had it on here i would have been super tempted!! was a bit of a let down

    Also snagged some oem style decals. Some cars had these installed at the dealer. Stoked for nic nacs. Not sure whether to put em on the red or the yellow. I guess it varied. The re-pops were made by a member on vortex. Found some dudes hotmail from 2009 to get em lol.

    So I finished the AC switch today. It took a lot of tinkering but figured it out. Stuf like this is good for dad duty while my son sleeps. Im stoked. Early euro bubble buttons with later mk3.5 cabrio style lighting.



    Removed the bulbs. One was burned out.



    Had to desolder some connections to remove the board. Then soldered in the new LED.



    The light transfer piece inside the button was tinted green and was kind of dull.



    I ordered some 1.5 mm fiber optic cable that had a good side glow.





    Illuminated. Compare to the normal defrost switch.



    And norm and max buttons depressed.





    Now I have to figure out the defrost switch. It might not look like it, but the outer amber ring has a green tint on the backside which I have to remove somehow in order to get it to glow blue like the others.

    Got these from vrclowncar

    Here is his car with em

    also got some early euro bubble buttons



    I need to repair the one led inside the AC norm/max button. I want to make my stuff all lit like a mk4 so I want to use 3.5 Cabrio stuff and convert some early euro bits to red and blue lit.
