Thanks. It's a mystery! I am going to look a bit closer for clues.

The screen is clear but nobody has yet confimed that there is a difference between ts and regular screen!

So am at last making progress with the mk1 resto due to suddenly having a bit more time on my hands! Got the screen out of the back of the shed (bought 15 years ago from vw company near Southampton that went out of business) and noticed on the packaging that it stated specifically that it was for a ...

No worries. Looks like I might have to bite the bullet, sell the one I have and order the one I want from the States!

Hi, I know its a long shot but is anyone interested in swapping a NOS window rubber and second hand chrome strip for one without strip i.e cal look one. I know Vintage rubber sells them but I can't wait for delivery time.

Shame they no longer include the seals. Could be a deal breaker!

Rieger still sell them, why don't you contact them direct? http://www.rieger-tuning.de/BK_EN/index.html

I have an '81 Mk1 in the same blue which I must confess has other primer colours as I have had to do the usual repairs. Still going strong though!

Update on the conundrum- Someone kindly suggested that it was in fact the rack itself which was a reproduction and had a larger bearing. I have since sourced an original item and will install the quick rack soon. I will let you know how it goes!

Thanks Pete, It appears that someone on here experienced the same problem some years ago but he managed to source a 20x35x7 bearing (lucky!!) which has proved impossible for me despite hours of research/calls. I am unaware as to how other people got around this problem as I am not registered on any ...

Hi, I have to change the rack on my Mk1 Scirocco so I bought a new one from a popular website which was advertised as being for a Mk1 golf. I decided to also buy a quick rack 2.9 and fit it into the new rack before fitting the lot. Problem is that the pinion bearing is too small. Don't understand wh...

Hi, I want to delete the chrome on my Mk1 and know you can buy "cal-style" window rubbers for the front and rear, but how do people deal with the chrome around the rear quarter and front windows? On the same subject, when i get around to doing it i will be selling all the rubbers with the ...

Apparently lights from a BMW 353i are the same!

I have just bought a xenon front spoiler, zender rear spoiler and strut brace from a chap in California and have the unenviable task of shipping said items to the U.K.! Does anyone have experience of this and could recommend the best/cheapest courier?

Yeah, Crazy Quiffs only do them for the Mk1 Golf!
