Thanks folks  :cool:

Tow truck arives tomorrow to move the old one to the workshop were the GTI has been resting after a days rest from its ragging it recieved last night. Ive got a few problems that need sorting on the GTI, if anybody can point me in the right direction on how to fix them:

Hand break light stays on - nothing todo with the cable, Just seems the senser is a little stuck

Over heating - Seemed to solve its self, but any suggestions just to be sure?

No air in the cab - Hot air comes out, But theres no fan, was told it could be a fuse or a jammed fan?

Front grill - a friend of mine has a jetta headlamp setup he wants rid of, I have a 4 lamp setup hes prepaired to swap for it provided it can be converted to a 2lamp setup, is it simply a case of removing the inner lamps and slapping a de-badged 2light grill over the front?

Thanks for the support folks, I cant wait for it to be back, None of my boy racer mates know about it, they still think ive got the 90BHP 1.8 engine in it. Boy will they be suprised when i open my engine bay  :cool:

hahahaha fielders a c**k. sorry but he is just a tit. What a waste of forum space for that moron.

As you say fielder, every cloud has a silver lining!

I myself have just taken delivery of a 5 door 8 valve just to be different, one for it being a 5 door and the other being an 8 valve...must be a corner i have turned in my life!

So yeah hurry up and get the bits sorted and most importantly some pics!  :smiley:

Tow truck arives tonight to move my old dub to the workshop so we can begin the strip down. All the items i can remove my self and work on myself i have placed in two big cardboard boxes and i will be keeping them here in the house. While the bulk of the work is being carried out ill be popping up with my boxes to add the interiour (and remove most of it too) and a few exteriour excessories like lights, mirrors etc.

Anybody have a bonnet and drivers wing nocking about?
