    Sorry to hear about new rear mods Donna hope ya get it sorted out and as you say at least the Chav lights bit the dust!!!!!! :-p :-p . Ya could get it all smoothed now, or maybe change to a vr and show Mark how its done. Graham

    Forgot to mention my vr has aircon so no problems with doing the above. You are not disconnecting the panel just moving it to get access.

    Pop the front fascia panel off first to reveal four securing screws. Undo these then push the heater panel gently into the dashboard, you should now have just enough room to unclip the white shroud that sits round the bulb. The shroud and bulb can now be detached from the wiring plug. Refitting is the reverse. No need to remove the unit from the dash at all... Only one bulb is used to light the three dials its fitted as above, there is a film fitted behind the dials which the light uses to transmit its glow too the outer two dials. Hope this helps ya both out. Graham

    Ok the easier way is to remove ya glove box and this will give you access to the space on the left hand side of the dash then when you start to feed all you cables into the dash you can reach them from the access space you have just created. This means you can safely pull the cables through and allow you to fit your stereo without risking pinching a wire. Hope this helps. Graham

    Mark 6.5" indoors m8, technically tweeters should be mounted within a range of 4-8" from the woofer for ultimate sound reproduction. But that would position em around you knee caps personally i would make a bracket up and position em under the dash grilles where the old ones where fitted. Also i fitted the crossovers under the dash not in the door. Graham

    Defo not Laserline m8. Maybe toad but defo not laslerline. Try locating the sounder in the engine bay and see if it has a logo

    Yes it was gt4 by all accounts..... Update , things have not gone quite to plan. Jake's new beast is er well vr sick.... +o *-) ( He is blaming the goth (opps) for breaking it but i think it was probably Jakes heavy right foot HA HA . Apparantly they thinks its the clutch!!!! Sam got done by a M5 ring Taxi sounds painfull to me... Mk3anni Steve is having fuelling problems. So judging by the fact that i think Seven cars left with about 13 people i assume some of em have driven the ring with out any problems. The gang leave to come home tommorrow so fingers crossed they all make it home in one

    Just an update for all those who are interested. Spoke to Jake tonight and everyone has final made it to the RING after a few hiccups..... :-# A BMW split a rad in France and had to wait for the AA to sort them out. Couple of laps were had by some of the gang early tonight and Jake for once pitched his tent in daylight! Now all sat drinking and playing on the bloody playstation (Warren).... Further updates tomorrow

    Well my first show on the stand and despite the slow or do i mean extremely long wait for Jake HA HA !!. It was bloody fantastic. Some nice photos to loving the VW scene and lovely E38 roll on next year. Good turnout and was great to meet more of you.

    Jake is waiting for me to get off work on friday hence the later start we will get to you all as soon as we can. Cant bloody wait hope the weather is ok.

    No problem if you look below your expansion bottle (right hand side near bulkhead.) You will see a rubber gromit about 2.5" in diameter if you remove this and make a hole in the middle of it you can poke your power cable through it. The end will then came through bulkhead in car under neath passenger side glove box. Just remember to seal round the hole in the grommet with sealer and refit the grommet into the bulkhead. Job done.

    The VR6OC

    blackmagic replied to mk3anni's topic in General Chat

    As life moves on you either change with the times or get left behind. This club has realised that and is moving in the right direction. There will always be those people who were born to break rules and annoy others but they are in the minority on this site. :@ :@ With the hard work that Admin and the Moderators put into running this site im sure it will grow in strength each and every day. I have made some friends in the time that ive been a member on this forum and for that im grateful to Pete and the Gang. I always know someone on here will be able to help with almost any vr6 related q
