Here's my list...

1992 Polo 1.0 Coupe in faded red
1989 Polo 1.0 Breadvan in black (

I'll try and get hold of a few and bring em to Tatton or Harewood

This is my daily... These were taken on Monday as soon as i'd fitted the coilies. It's settled about another 5-10mm since then!

[quote="jagr"] And thanks to Nathan (Snathe) I got it lowered today [/.quote] Christ on a bike, that looks so much better dude :cool: Seems to have settled nicely too... Nice to meet you today Justin, and glad i didn't need to throw too much money into the swear box while fitting them! :lo...

Looks good Lee :cool: I'm running mine as low as i possibly can. The forecourt for my workshop is quite rough, and on one part the car beaches and sits right down on the alloy jacking plate thingy behind the front subframe :P I need to get to a scrappy and get some spare ones, as i think i'll be wea...

I have the RS8 replicas on my B5, but mine are ET35 and fill the arches nicely (3mm spacer on rears too). I bought mine off a friend who'd had them on his Mk4 Golf for a year. The laquer had peeled on all 4, so i got the DA sander out and refurbed them, and painted them gloss black :cool: They do we...

I've got hot tuning (TA Technix) coilies on mine. The ride quality is great considering how low i'm running!
The only problem i've got at the moment is the n/s/f spring is rubbing on the bolt for the top arm inner bush Just need to turn the spring when i get a minute so it misses

Its sooooooo much easier to fit the coilies without touching the pinch bolt... I did mine on Monday quite easily and with no dramas

No dude... Completely different design

I've just had to remove my front mudflaps, as they were dragging on the floor all the time
The rears are ok though, and only catch occasionally.

Really happy with it now... Just needs tints and the bonnet, bumper & wings painting and it'll be getting there.
Cheers again for the kind comments peeps

Lol... I have some on the way as i type this
VW wanted

Gen VW Hella Xenon projectors and coilovers now fitted... Just took a couple of pics at work with my mate's baby blue Corrado :cool: http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j271/snathe/IMG_0666a.jpg http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j271/snathe/IMG_0667a.jpg http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j271/snathe/I...

New ballast packs from VW cost a fortune... Best bet is to get a HID kit off fleabay IMO

But the last testing centre was quite out of my way until i found this new place, best bit about it, when the person took it for testing, he rang 2 people up, one of those people from VW and he said he's never heard of lights that you can change from LHD to RHD just like that, And i was adamant whe...

Check bulbs are fitted the right way round, and also check for corrosion on the bulb holder and plug. Sounds like there's a short somewhere, or a bulb fitted wrong.

Pics of the 2 pin power plug on the ballast pack...




Hope this helps dude...

I've just fitted mine today Dave... Make sure the 2 pin plug on the ballast pack is connected the right way round. The clip on the wiring plug snaps over the wedge shaped notch, not the post. If this is the wrong polarity it could cause the problem you're having. I'll add some pics in the morning so...

I'll be there in my Silver B5 estate Paul

Details here.....

If you're running the same width tyres all round, it doesn't matter if the rims are different widths. Also, don't worry about spacers and wheel offsets upsetting the diffs etc. They wont :wink: As long as all 4 wheels turn at the same speed and have the same tread pattern, that's all you have to wor...

Bllllllllllllless ya!! Nice find!!
Cheers dude, i'll make sure it fits and get it bought

I think it has alot to do with how the copper perceives you and your car... I used to get hassle every time i went out in my escort turbo and impreza, even though both cars were 100% legal! Then i had a run of 3 skylines, and never got pulled once... The last one had THE loudest exhaust in the world...

There's a EUmania thing going off just up the road from me on Sunday, but not sure i'll go. The venue is a regular haunt for the blue neon'd saxo brigade :roll: just not my scene at all!! I think Big Ray will be there, and a few others too from this forum. Hmmmmmm... What to do.... :? If i end up at...

I'm normally the guy that buy's the rammle that doesn't work too :lol: Makes a nice change f...

I don't think there is an actual "minimum light output" for headlamps... As long as they emit (sp?) enough light to light up the road, and have the correct beam pattern.
They look cool tho, much better than all that chrome IMO... Not too dark either
