Personal opinions mate ,personally i prefer darker strips on lighter cars on my black 2 it had a charcoal colour strip ,and they blended in nice with the black stick some green insulating tape on to give you a visual idea could always do the sills as well ? http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n281/bl...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Fuse box diagram please

Only one fuse for the windows
do, other electrical items work on that side?
if not it could be the wiring where it goes through the door
or could be the window motor itself or just the switch,does it not work from either switch ?
