Re: Retro fitting air conditioning to a 1986 GTX Scirocco
Ripped the aircon off my mk2 and held onto all the bits. Broke most of the pipe work but sure new bits could be made up using what remains as a guide. May be better off using mk3 bits as suggested above but it's all taking up space in the dads shed so welcome to it if you want it.

Re: Heater Matrix question
I had a right nightmare getting the matrix out so I just chopped the plastic pipes of just before the rubber hose and pulled the remains out afterwards. Definitely repeat the technique if I had to do another.

Re: Insurance write-off? Advice please folks...
Would it be too much to ask if you could chop out the fuse box bracket and a little slurpy ding metal?

Re: Replacement carb flange
I'll post the cad file tomorrow and you will see what I mean, was planning on sending it off to the cnc people and mounting all of the brackets too it as per the Webber baseplate. But seeing yours I may give it a go with hand tools and some luck aha. Is it 20mm? Meaning no need to relocate the ...

Re: Spotted
