Thanks for posting that pic of the back of your cab mate, I just ordered a set of those taillights from TMTuning in Germany along with some smoked (and supposedly bright) headlights for my creamy/yellow swallowtail LS. They look quite good in 'normal' conditions which helps me relax about the price (yikes!).

I got mine off an Ebay seller for 120 bucks. Fantastic quality without the crazy price.

I just went for a cuise to Wollonong and Back through the national park in the Mk1 16v and it is good fun. Power in a small car and grin factor is what you are aiming for guys.

Nice to be able to drive, it but now need new front shocks and a new wheel cylinder for one of the back wheels and a speedo cable.
Engine goes great though.

More than the minimum legal level of silencing is a good idea too guys. OMG Loudness

Not wishing to take this thread off topic but are new shocks/springs available and if so how much?

I'm pumped. I finally got my car running semi properly again! flipping woot! I love rolling in my mk 1. makes me happy.

I havn't seen a decent photo from this site in recent times though, 64kbs for the rest of the month is doing my head in!
