  • Hello, my name is John and I'm a dub addict.
go for the early spec stuff, as the later switches are designed to fit in the rado door pockets so are harder to fit to a MK2.  Early ones you just chop a hole in the doorcard and they clip right in!  Passats malso have thje same setup, if you're lucky you can get a 4 door version, but this is quite rare to find especially with the early switches.  The ones you want look like this:

no not directly, switches are a different shape.  however, if you look out for later SEAT models they have MK2 shape switches that plug into the corrado loom :)

A mod I want to do also. Jonny, does this still use the golf electric mechanism or do you have to modify a corrado one ?

I do like the oldskoolness of the mk2 (well, love it!!) but I do like having the luxury of electric windows etc. I fitted 'em on my Fiesta, and am gonna damn well do it on my Golf too  :grin: :grin:

you need to use your old window regulators, the corrado ones do not fit :)

sorry to bring up an old thread, but can anybody tell me which wires go onto which pin on the switches? eg. Pin 1 = green, Pin 2 = Black etc..
Thanks
