I believe Audi 80's are a direct fit.

Corrrado motor might fit also.

I believe Audi 80's are a direct fit, but I used a pug 405 GL motor myself, and had to do some fiddling to get it to fit.

Corrrado motor should fit also.

did that require cutting that evil bit of metal sticking out? the audi 80 one I believe you do have to chop off some random bit of metal - which isnt any use and wont stop you reverting back to the original setup.. r something?

Yeah, the pug one needs some ally filed down just wide of the screw holes so it sits flush.

I would have thought that it would be a straight on fit, just grab it if you can get it, and do a how to with pics.

bomp - how did you make the motor cover, i've been trying to do one myself but it just aint happening, did you use jsut like cream material, rather than matching maTERIAL? THE ONLY STUFF I COULD GET TO USE WAS A SUNVISOR, CUT DOWN TO GIVE ME SOME OF THE MATERIAL, BUT ITS QUITE THICK AND  doesnt fit too well, and has a crease line all the way through..  :sad:

oops slipped caps in the middle there without realising  :grin:

Use roof lining as the cover.

Yeah, one will be the -ve (Clamp it to ground/chassis) and the other will be +ve (Use a 12v +ve wire when ignition/key is switched to on) with the motor switch (to open/close) inbetween.

wwciekd got your pm, but, as the message is ehre, how lnog do you reckon it would take approx? and, i was gonig to put the switch in next to the interior light, or at least possibly hoped to, if i chipped out the hole ready, can you trim it to that?  :wink:

Should be ok, but only if there's enough clearance with the switch and the motor. You'll have to take a look at where the best place for switch is to be placed I guess.

Length of time.........? Dunno really, a week or two? not sure.
