1st off, as with any forum ive joined and posted on, always wise to say hello and a little intro
names Chris from Edinburgh, always had a passion for the ol' mk2, finally got one last year.......its been an absolute dog
but heyho,
its a mkII 3dr 16v GTi 89 helios blue on 15"estorils with single headlight conversion lowered on gmax springs
just recently had to have the cyclinder heads reskimmed and all the valves re cut, £Â£Ã‚£Ã‚£Ã‚£Ã‚£ had a new fuel pump fitted, fitted a new idle valve recently, running ok, now developed an intermittent oil warning light (buzzes randomly)
ok.......
so why ive registered is really to ask if anyone can help with regards to installing the AUDI VDO GAUGE (which iv'e just bought) thought it would make a nice mod, i can see some of yall have them fitted and was hoping there was some sort of guide someone could point me toward, any help would be greatly appreciated :smiley:
also would the DIGITIZ rallye dash(digital display) bolt directly into my mkII? my clocks are the single connector.
lastly where the hell would i get a zender rear spoiler?...........
before anyone says well have you tried searching for what your looking for.......the answer is "yes" for the past 3 hours, with little results

nice, they from a quattro?.......
does anyone know a supplier (except vividwonders) for the headlights with yellow chambers?..........
ive seen a canadian company that has blue headlights (lhd) but they dont ship to the UK :cry:
looking for a new set of lights..... cant afford a rallye front, cant find a bloody jetta front,
-
audi quattro yes :wink:
custom panel to fit them in
-
if you want it to look a bit more OEM then get the mk3 oil cooler, has an extra space for the third sender so no need for a T-Piece... looks that little bit better imo.
-
late mk2 also had 3 spaces for 3 senders....well mine has
-
im just about ready to fit my guages too this weekend. although i went for a mechanical oil pressure guage for 2 reasons.........
more reliable.
easier to get the parts for because you dont have to find the audi dual sender.
if you get stuck or need an answer asap on any problems you face while installing your guages give me a call or text on 07969958967
good luck buddie!!!

Nick if youre fitting yours over the weekednd or anytime soon youve got my number give us a buzz if need be!!

about to do this in mine (mk1 gti)
wondered about the t-piece, is this so that you can have oil pressure warning light on maf AND oil pressure read out, and the thrid sensor is the oil temp for vdo?
and i heard you can run something off an oil cooler... well my mk1 gti has an oil cooler.... so i presume i can run it off there????? very very very confused!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HELLPPPP :undecided:
