What are 'those' and what's the part number, please?  :grin:
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

A must for a Corrado tbf. I've kind of "adapted" my standard ones by bending where the spring clips on. It extends the spring so gives more tension on the arm against the screen. Its far better than before, but not perfect if I'm honest. The TT arms are not cheap if bought new from Audi, so ebay trawling or breakers yards are the best bet. The Lupo arms are more readily available and cheaper if you happen to find a couple being broken locally. This and an uprated headlight wiring loom really are must have items for a Corrado.

I was going to get a loom for mine again as per the last one but mine was a bit dodgy and occasionally drained the battery  :angry:

I'm gonna give the nightbreakers a go before I update the loom to see if they help in any way.

Next up is a complete brake refurb and I need to find a leather repair company local to do some minor repairs to the rear seats.

Whilst waiting for the brake parts to arrive, I sorted the next Corrado issue........... the dodgy sunroof  :angry:

Picked up a Mk3 golf estate sunroof locally and popped it in  :cool:

While I was doing it I also turned the headlining black  :evil:







I now have a tilting AND sliding sunroof  :cool: :cool:
