Hello

Does anyone know if it is possible to fit a MK2 steering wheel with airbag on a MK1 that has an airbag already?

Thanks

Hi all,

I’m doing research so I know how much to save up when my suspension needs an overhaul.

Additionally the mk2 Bilsteins are much better than mk1 and also 10mm lower?

So between the 2...

Questions are in the subject box really, can anyone enlighten me please.

Evening all.

A buddy has a mk1 import that is in decent bodywork condition, but the engine is a bit tricky.

Here is the question: the aircon unit under the bonnet has been removed. The heating still works and the blowers etc, but the compressor is still there, as is the extra fan.

Can you...

Hi,
Looking for a bit of guidance.
My son has just bought a boot spoiler, so I had to but a new boot lid (so as to leave the original available to switch back).
1.) Is there a right and wrong place / way to fit a spoiler. e.g. no more than 3" form the edge etc.
