Re: How to route Sub Power cable Passat B4

What size Sub Power cable are you using?
I'm using a 21mm2 one that's connected to a 1000W 1 channel amp powering a 350W woofer :P

Re: 1996 B4

Nice find! :D Here's my car, the custom plate in the window has been removed and the gps has been relocated, and I know it needs a good whack with the lowering stick, but all in good time, I'm having too much fun driving it as it is... :P http://i1121.photobucket.com/albums/l505/Yankee271/DSC00925.j...

Re: 1996 B4

My Passat is (if I remember correctly) my 16th car in 7 years, I've driven front wheel driven cars, rear wheel driven ones and 4x4s and the wagon always puts a smile on my face (even though it is waay too slow)

Re: 1996 B4

Thanks, I don't know how long I will keep mine but I'm liking my B4 Passat wagon more and more, I just need to replace the left rear shock (will replace all 4 instead).

Re: B4 Wagon Tail light question

VR6 ones?
Cool!!
So I got vr6 spec tail lights and polo 6n steering wheel (I think)

Oh and red shed, if I do decide to get rid of them I'd have to send them from Norway to UK... But anything is possible I guess.

Re: will 15x7 ats cups fit b4 passat estate

Correct me if I'm wrong here guys but I think you'd need spacers so that the wheels won't get lost under the car (so to speak) with such a low et.
