Re: Drivers footwell leak from windscreen vents
Yes weve had experience of this recently but only on the passenger side, drivers side has a lot more stuff hiding the seam. I'll include details of how to do the passenger side in case anyone else wants to know, its fairly easy to remedy, remove the glove box lid & inner glove box compartment, t...

Re: Leather door card handle query

Re: BRAIDED BRAKE HOSE PROBLEM
Cheers Paul, I managed to get the off side front line with new unions done today & it worked a treat, even though the new unions were the same size as the OEM ones, with the exception that the thread runs all the way down as opposed to having a blank section at the bottom, so you actually get mo...

Re: BRAIDED BRAKE HOSE PROBLEM
That's what I was hoping to avoid Paul but looks like what I will have to do, are the unions a standard size ? There is a good car parts shop near me that still make brake lines to order, but I want to make sure they have the correct ends. Also can't for the life of me remember if the lines that run...

Re: MK1 caliper carriers senior moment
I knew the calliper had L & R on it you Dingbat but I can't for the life of me see how the carrier can be sided ? The casting marks are at both sides of the carrier so one is never upside down ??? Cheers jinx
