I really need to clean it lol

He is my first VR6 and i love it.

Had some issue's along the way though, Thermostat fail, alternator fail, rocker gasket fail, leaking boot and dodgy starter, some of you know that is was very close in getting rid but then i drove him and fell in love with it once again.

Long live Shnitzel, i dont know if you can see but there is a new addition to my sticker collection on the rear window. that is Shnitzel from the cartoon Chowder for those of you who dont watch it lol

I've replaced the rocker gasket so while the cover was off i took this, its not very often you get to see inside :)

does anyone know where it goes. the loom goes down behind the lower lights to the horns and this is with them. am i right in assuming it should plug into the back of the bumper somewhere?

Mate how did you manage to get the lights split? Can't get mines apart.

Put them in the oven on gas mark 4 and leave em in there for 5 mins.

Pre heat the oven 1st and put them in lense down strait on the rack.

Use a screw driver to prise them apart a bit at a time while they are still warm,

its surprisingly easy to do :D
