Re: Headlight upgrade kit, plug and play

^^^ What James said! Couldnt keep the guy on track what with a sudden upturn of business in his daily job and less time to devote to it, shame as Daves kit would have been way superior to the heritage one in quality. I ordered one from them a while back and although it did the job (only on the ...

Re: Fuel Filler Neck no longer available

As far as I know, Joost (Blueshark) can do the filler necks, its just the end piece thats a problem (that the cap goes onto) but im led to believe that if you lop yours off and send he'll attach it.

Could be wrong about all or some of the above but Blueshark will put you right im sure

Re: use of stainless fastenings

Dont EVER fit stainless front anti roll bar clamps! One wrong move and they will snap, shoot upwards and rip right through your cv boots, just like the ones that were fitted to mine did!

Front ARB clamps

Just a cautionary warning to anyone tempted to fit stainless outer clamps, mine was fitted with them, both snapped, shot up and tore thru both cv boots! Mark Carter over at classic vw sent two genuine vw ones to replace, much better as not being stainless, they have at least some "give"
