Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Early Scirocco uses aluminium extrusion, very easy to bend out of shape, has a tiny slot in the rain gutter at each end for a dimple in the ali to clip into.Originally posted by Hydro View Post
Later versions use the clear plastic coated foil stuff, which with sun action goes brittle and yelows, usually falls apart trying to remove it. Held on with a black mastic stuff.Lots of MK 1 Scirocco's...
If it aint a MK 1 then it must be a donor car ??

the Sirocco sign on the rear needs the original number plate lights fitted in
to give it that " Lairy night time " look.
I was wondering if white neon strips would illuminate it better. Will try the lights first.
Maybe a switch to flickering light could be fun - or good for braking.

Use it for brake lights, I reckon that would be killer

looking mighty fine Glenn. Well done.Comment

Thanks, I am making some headway now.
Went through all the fuses replacing them and or cleaning ends.
Most things work now.......eexcepttt....rear washer, demister, and the right blinker is a bit dull. [funny that it works better on the Trouble light switch...]
Might try to bleed the brakes tomorrow - see if my son can spare 5 mins

do I need working Hatch " struts "....[ the pressurized stuts that support the Rear Hatch ]
to get it registered..?????Glenn....with Old Scirocco to replace old Beetle.sigpicComment

I doubt it, it doesn't affect the safety of the vehicle at all, so i doubt you'd need it for RWC. There's nothing on my old RWC's that would indicate the need for this.
having said that, you'd kick yourself if it came down and bopped you on the head one day.Comment
