@Gazear. It’s usually the master cylinder mate. Bit of a common problem

Looks great @Handyandy. I’d been watching the for sale thread every day, waiting for that to come for sale. I forgot to check for a day or two and you bought it!
You snooze you loose as they say! Well done to you Sir!

Yeah, those mods will complete the look mate

@ sean1066 I probably will at some point mate, it’s on the to do list, along with many other things that aren’t caddy related.

Fitted the mk4 tail lights this morning. Opted for the genuine vw tinted ones from travelin lite.
Would like to say thanks to Doc for his how to on the re pinning of the plugs, much appreciated.
Just got to get over to a chap in hemel Hempstead that as vag can pro to do the necessary coding. He is charging £30 which I thinks is very reasonable.
I'm based in Essex just incase anyone else needs is looking for a coder.Image

A friend of mine removed the factory D8S. In its place, Koito BiLED (Toyota / Lexus) was installed. :D :D
