mk1 power steering
« on: 16 June 2004, 10:19 »
Can power steering be added to a mk1 golf cab, if so does anyone know what is involved & how much it could cost??

P.S. might have to change my hood, does anyone know where i can get a replacement or even a power hood (would this be alot of work to convert??)

Thanks

Couple of hundred on ebay for power steering for my mk1 tin top and its not worth it for me. I like my handling at the mo better for doing skids ha ha!!

I was told it would cost about ?350 to put power steering on my cab using a second hand unit but I never looked into it too much as it never really bothered me. No idea how much it would cost to put a power hood in but I'm guessing it wouldn't be cheap. I would miss the power hood on mine, it's so much easier than a manual one.

There is a detailed procedure in Haynes' Resoration Manual.
It suggests manufacturers for the parts you will need, if you like I can post an inventory, then it should be easy to do a costing.
