What was it?

Are new cam bearings not available or something?

Ive still got some left somewhere. I will give them another go sometime.

Thanks dude. They look surprisingly like these: http://www.12voltplanet.co.uk/superseal-1-5-series-waterproof-connectors.html I tried some of those but for the life in me couldn't get the pins to seat in the plugs properly. I bought them on ebay though so they could have been shit knock off's. The VAG one's seem reasonably priced. Is there a good site to buy genuine VAG stuff online? Edit: Success: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/RO87-world?_trksid=p2047675.l2563

Sounds like a plan. I guess you may need a few extra/fewer pins/wires adding to the body loom. Can you buy vag plugs and pins? I'm looking for some decent multiplugs for my mini loom but most the aftermarket ones just seem shit.

What's your plan? Fit the whole golf loom to the tt and repin the plugs to suit? Or some mash up of the two looms? Are the looms modular at all? The Honda I had had separate engine/body/dash looms. Also what about fuel systems? Is it just a case of changing the pump or are they completely different?

Are pin outs not readily available for vag stuff?

Surely a device small enough to be hidden inside the frame isn't going to have enough battery power to give a great advantage? And even if it does how much weight does it add? That video suggests its geared to the bottom bracket. I thought it may be internal to the rear hub.

The Mk3 video looks a lot smoother towards the end. I know nothing about racing but it looks like its a bit 'snatchy' at the end of a slide?

I recommend everyone has a go at: Hardknott Pass - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardknott_Pass Wynrose Pass - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrynose_Pass Both follow on from each other so can be done together. Not really a fast drive but great fun. And while you are there you might as well do buttertubs which is faster - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buttertubs_Pass

Are the clocks etc a direct fit? Is it a 3 door golf? I guess a lot of stuff is common between the two.

Collecting dust unused...

Can't you use the body loom from the tt? Is the golf loom long enough for the tt?

Yep 1973 clubman. Its so so basic: Single speed wipers, no reverse lights, no hazards, no stereo, no fog lights, manual washer pump. Its only got 2 fuses currently but that will be split into 6+.

Wiring is fun isnt it George. My current project:

Is it worth replacing the hub then? Wouldn't want to risk dodgy wheel bolt threads. Are the wings plastic?

Theres still around 100 posts a day. In its peak January 2008 it saw 1500 posts a day.

Plastic i imagine. Is there much other damage other than the wing @dann2707 ?

Where have you taken it Sam? I usually use Drakes in Bradford.

I think its time you moved to a house with a drive @MadManMike

I think its just the angles that look odd. It looks like the rear drivers side is jacked up.

Something looks broken in that picture....

I love how doing all that made it 'legal'.

12 are online right now :-p

Hope you all have a good day and Santa is kind to you.
