damn mk3s, why you no turn interior lights off after 'x' period of time like the bora.
Got the flattest of flat batteries now after leaving the boot open and front interior lights on accidentally last night.
No good when I cant get jumper leads to the car how its parked

Gotta love it when that happens

ill have to check it out! cheers.
I found a OEM Minidisc unit, being a MD user and fan back in the day I thought it would be appropriate (still have all my discs and player somewhere), but will see.

Yeah know a bit comes out, but mines basically all gone being we had the dash out. ill see how close it lines up when I bolt the dash down

I just just took out my OEM 10 cd stacker and head unit if you would be interested, at least it isn't obsolete!

Reverse roll start no worries Dyl! Minidisc player would be off chops as well

Don't have too many CDs, but got a picture of it?

Did think that. Problem is if no dice then it's stuck blocking the driveway lol. Polo is hard enough to push up the hill with 3-4 tradies on it.
Think stu has a battery pack so will give that a go

Head unit
And stacker

[dylan8]

Think that's the same as what I have now, Wil check though. Cheers

Same HU as mine so all good, thanks.

Got some bits and Bobs done today.
Worked out the brake pedal not completely coming off is to do with the plastic Bush in the back of the pedal that connects to the master being broken.
New one of those hopefully solves the problem.

Started putting the interior back together and plugging a few more things in. Was mostly done until I realised I had no plug going to the head unit... pulled a fair bit of it apart again, still can't find it. Bit confused what the go is there.

Gave up when I went to move the bora and found something oily had been sprayed on a few panels and windscreen.
Can't have nice things.

That cake looks delicious.

That cake looks delicious.

So true

Sorted the headunit wiring issue. part of the loom had been unplugged and put in a different box. two plugs into that loom, loom into HU, done.
seem to be down on the number of screws to put everything back together so will hopefully hit up some wreckers tomorrow and grab some along with a few other bits and pieces I need to fix/replace

[Water Boy]

Few parts acquired and now the dash board wont fall out!

LOL! yes cheers for that!
new passenger air bag loom acquired as mine was a bit broken (found out there was two styles, just a heads up for those playing at home), few more screws to get the dash together, and a new mirror and base as both mine are dead.
Few more head scratching things like 'what's this plug' and 'where's this plug' sorted.

The two screws that hold the dash to the fire wall, does anyone know what the hole under the drivers side screw is? passenger side one has a plug, drivers side looks like it may have had something in it at some stage...

Picked up thestus old ventos exhaust, RIP. It was a bit better condition then mine, mine which had been dodgied up by the old owner for the previous road worthy.

[Mk3 AAA]

Why not just extend the tips of the VR exhaust?

[dylan8]

Had a after market remus with a massive hole in the back box,
Don't want to spend money on the exhaust until I'm putting something decent on
