I have just found a set of clocks from a Citi in a scrapy near me, only 64K on them and fitted nice into my GL. No buzzing, no lights flashing. As new :laugh:

Only paid 25 notes for them with a the dash soround as mine was broken and a water pipe that i needed as mine burst :shocked:

all done and sweet as a nut :cool:

cheers

ECP do a leccy window kit for the mk1, dont know if it will be compatible with the citi golf though. :undecided: Give Stuart a ring at ECP in Leeds (see deals and discounts section for 10% off). :smiley:

Cheers guyz, well it's not a citi golf it's a (don't laugh) Chico gold "it's chico time" :)

I'll ring them, good discount too! cheers.

Aha i'll have to send Rubjonny on a recon mission for me, he's awsome at finding things at scrappies :)

Well i got here home today! 3 hours drive up 4 hours drive home, all is well, very happy, i so want a mk1 gti now :) it just so great and fun to drive and it's only a 1.3 carb! averaged 130 all the way home, Km that is :)

I have loads of questions, but i'll sus them out one by one and nag you lot :)

Thanks again!
