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.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • HOW can it use the rear quarters? I've seen them in the states. They've got MK5 Jetta GTI's too. Bastards.

    • they use it up to the bit just behind the quarter glass, and then use the skin of the side of the boot to match it up. It's complex to type out, with out the graphical assistance of my hands, but it works..

      I don't think i've saved the build thread. A US workshop did it., so it was on there homepage, not vortex or nothing

      EDIT FOR PIC:

      found a pic of it:

      • It's totally custom job, and a very time-consuming and almost-not-worth-the-effort kind of job. Doors from a 2-door Golf as well. I think it was pulled off by the guys at 1552. I'm sure they did the 2-door Mk4 Jetta. I don't know how many 2-door Mk3 Jetta/Vento examples there were but I'm sure of another one (in Tornado Red I think) that's being shown around in the US at the moment.
        Past: Mk3 Golf 2L 8V, Audi 8L A3T.
        Present: Mk3 Golf variant.

          And I'm almost certain its a body shop business's project as well, carting it around the shows to see what they can offer. As Ray said, the amount of effort and labour is hardly if not entirely unworthy.
