Rust  :sad:







Got quoted £65 to fix it today by a mobile welder. He says only a bit has to be cut out and a small plate welding in  :cool:

Can anybody tell me what this plug is for on the headlight loom on both sides?

Not sure about the plug but that rust ain't that bad mate. I would get it fixed if your getting quoted £65...if you want to see rust you should see my mk1 sitting out the front of my house :laugh:

That plug (as far as i recall) is for the headlight levelling motors, which your car wont have mate. Shame about the rust, nice project otherwise. :wink:

That rust needs sorting with more than a plate, needs cutting back and replacing really as you need strength in that area
