1st off, as with any forum ive joined and posted on, always wise to say hello and a little intro

names Chris from Edinburgh, always had a passion for the ol' mk2, finally got one last year.......its been an absolute dog

but heyho,

 its a mkII 3dr 16v GTi 89 helios blue on 15"estorils with single headlight conversion lowered on gmax springs
just recently had to have the cyclinder heads reskimmed and all the valves re cut, £Â£Ã‚£Ã‚£Ã‚£Ã‚£ had a new fuel pump fitted, fitted a new idle valve recently, running ok, now developed an intermittent oil warning light (buzzes randomly)

ok.......

so why ive registered is really to ask if anyone can help with regards to installing the AUDI VDO GAUGE (which iv'e just bought) thought it would make a nice mod, i can see some of yall have them fitted and was hoping there was some sort of guide someone could point me toward, any help would be greatly appreciated :smiley:

also would the DIGITIZ rallye dash(digital display) bolt directly into my mkII? my clocks are the single connector.

lastly where the hell would i get a zender rear spoiler?...........

before anyone says well have you tried searching for what your looking for.......the answer is "yes" for the past 3 hours, with little results
