Well I'm guessing Sunroof, but I'm only getting to skim through the forums lately, so missed loads of things
Yep sunroof, mine had rotted on one end and the clip was coming away. The guy did a fantastic job and it cost me some cans of abbot's ale. Not much going on in my camp, so not missed much here buddy.
This evening I've put the replacement dash surround in, I had trimmed 2 switch holes to fit mk4 style seat switches before getting the centre console. So when we went for a drive, Mrs Dodgy would play catch the blank as the lower ones made a break for it. 'New' one arrived, but one screw tab was broken behind the headlight switch, no big deal, didn't pay too much for the trim and chopped a fuel line clip up that had left over from the mini, flattened It and it holds the plastic when screwed in. Managed to remove some of the marks off the dash itself and some of the superglue that the previous owner had stuck the radio in with. Used renovo leather cream to refresh it all a bit. Good outcome compared to how it was, just got to sort the broken chrome strip that runs along the top and bottom in the middle, the door trim is different profile unfortunately as had some left from stripping the panels previously. Rear big bumper is now stripped and ready to paint, front is ready to bolt on, but obviously need the pair at same time. And sunroof deflector is back in after painting it, but the adhesive I used to stick the end plastic bit to the main flat piece has given up the ghost in the heat, so will get some epoxy in there soon.
Leather door cards fitted, just got to make a cover for the rear switch holes, winder pokes through perfectly but need to cover behind it. Seats cleaned up nicely, and by chance I found the bit of trim strip that had broken on the dash on the return bit under the stereo, randomly it was in a bag of bits in the shed and found it while looking for another part! Pure luck. Super glue rescue.
New part arrived, to hopefully get to the bottom of the low clutch pedal. New braided hose with an m12 90degree and a vw push fit end, so I can change from the mk3 slave to the later polo style one that matches to the bore of the transporter master cylinder. Had it made up by BRT motorsport using gheir online hose builder, its audi fitting number 1 if anybody else needs one. Probably not getting chance to fit before the weekend, but will report back with the findings.
£38 including first class post, ordered Friday night and arrived today, got P clips for it too. They seemed to be the only place except epytec that have the end fitting, well HEL said they probably could do it, and I may send them my other hose they made to swap to the push fit end. BRT also have other fittings for push fit, ford, Renault and a different audi type, as well as all normal stuff.
Went to Hebden Bridge show on Saturday, so will let the few pictures I took show how wonderful the weather was.... Cleaned up quite well, it caught a few people out with the 'looks stock non stock' fitments. mk3 anniversary was fantastic. Just for @PhilRyder . And grabbed a few minutes this evening and finally swapped the gear knob, ground and tapped the stick to m12 and got a mk1 TT 5 speed one on with the alloy sleeve. And found a pair of tt blanks which will plug the winder holes perfectly, when sort a way to lock them in.
Yeah, I got these as came complete with looms on back, and cheaper than buying loom alone. Someone does 3d print votex grilles for them too now, did just consider them over the clear, but think orange will be best. On a tangent, the lock rod is in the post today for you.
