MK2 golf and scirocco conversion

[dasachmo]

soz, made a new topic coz this IS kinda different, erm.... basically, as i was saying, im trying to get this 85 mk 2 golf up to scratch, and i got hold of a scirocco steering wheel, from a A reg,

now im thinking of transferring the drivers seat from the scirocco to the golf, ( if it fits/works)... but can i transfer the steering wheel 2, im kinda worried coz if i wire it wrong or it aint meant to go, i dont wanna blow fuses or anything....

can anyone enlighten me.... thanx again in advance ...

Sirocco seats will fit perfectly and give you a lower driving position if you like which is nice

The steering wheel will almost defo fit, but the only issue you MIGHT have is that the steering column on the Golf has the large spline adaptor.  But I'm 99.99% sure it wasn't fitted till 87 at the earliest.

If it is fitted you can remove it, but its a total arse. Only attempt if you have a decent set of gear pullers

cool, does that mean i can swap the speedo / rev counter bit, from teh scirrocco to the golf, coz i want one for the golf, and i can't get a GTI one?

I'm not sure about that,  if the plugs match up then it should fit no worries

oooh, ooh, ooh, 1 last thing, soz, but when im doing switching like stuff with the dash and steering wheel, what kinda precuations do i have to take with regards to fuses? coz i dont wanna blow the electrics

Just take the negative lead off the battery, safest thing to do
