Hi all. Just wondering if anyone knows of a welder as close to widnes as possible. Even better would be a mobile one as the 90 is SORNed and I can't get it on the road till this is sorted (plate on chassis between rear wheel and crossmember, or whole crossmember replacing), vicious circle...

I had this problem a while back along a busy road which was fun. It turned out to be a small piece of plastic on the accelerator cable getting stuck in the grommet where it passes through the bulkhead. Just have a look for that, I think it's about a cm long and clear.

My family own a signwriting business so I would be able to produce anything you might want. I'm going to be making a set for mine soon so I'll put up pictures and a price for anyone who wants a set (anyother custom decals just message me) when I first got my Landy I got carried away and covered...

If you send me a message with what you want: Size, colours, quantity then I'll get back to you with a price. And anyone else interested too. If you are by Liverpool then I can apply them for you. If not they are easy to fit yourself. I'll try and dig out some of the images of all the decals I...

hi. if you still have it then i would be interested. how deep is the shelf? and when is best for collection? ill be coming from liverpool if you are ever over this way and i can meet you half way or something, if not, just pm me your address. cheers ben

hi again, im in the same situation. no heater and no headlining etc. i will be insulating over my christmas break from uni so if you want to do both vehicles together that would probably make things easier and cut down on waste etc. from having looked around here and a few VW forums the...

I live in widnes now, which is where the attempted theft took place. The successful theft was on smithdown road in wavertree. Where are you? Get in much offroading?

sounds like i was even luckier than i thought! mine was stolen the week after i bought it. police recovered it 2 days later abandoned in speke (anyone who knows liverpool wont be suprised). they pulled out the rubbers on the rear windows and got in that way, leaned in and unlocked the rear...

The lights are earthed to the bolts that hold on my steering guard, all cleaned up and should be ok. Relay is earthed to the wing, again cleaned to bare metal. Switch is earthed to metal panel fuse box is attached to. I've checked every earth and no difference. I can't get to my battery as the...

Yes, lights work as they should. I'm quite pleased with myself as far as that goes. Wiring goes: To relay: Battery +ve Switched feed from main beam Earth Feed to lights (both lights wired together and then to relay)

I've used what came with the kit, except for 2 of the earths (relay and 1 light) could it be down to the crimp on connectors I've used or is that unlikely? I think the wire is 2.5 gauge, that is it took the slot marked 2.5 on my wire cutters to strip it. Thanks for the help, I know it isn't...

unfortunatey not, 12v 55w h3 bulbs. before i start taking bits of the dash off again is it possible that a cock up around the switch, or where ive spliced into the main beam circuit could cause this? thanks alot

sorry, that is how they are connected, just my bad descriptions. thanks for the link, very helpful. its still not sorted though, ive been over it top to bottom and cant for the life of me see where this has gone wrong. i knew attempting anything electrical wouldnt go well, still they light up...

i followed the instructions that came with the kit and took one wire from the relay and attached it to the end of both lights. all three wires are connected in the same junction, is this my problem? should i connect the two lights and then splice the wire from the relay into this wire at...

ok, so ive added extra driving lights to aid night time visibility. my only problem is that they are pretty dim, more of an orange glow. when i remove the earth from one of them the other brightens up and vice versa. ive checked all earths etc, but does anyone know why when they are both on they...

sure do. im not great with electrics but im getting there.

hi all. my doors are missing the wire that connects the door lock mechanism with the plastic lock bit at the top of the door card. ive replaced them with thick coat hanger wire which works but isnt perfect. any idea what these are called and where i can get them? thanks

the switch on the dash is wired to the metal plate that holds the fuse box (a previous owner had earthed something there so though that was ok), the lights are earthed to the bolts that hold my steering guard to the chassis, and the relay is earthed to the inner wing (i think this is where the...

Got it all done, thanks for the help guys. Only thing now is that they are a very dim orange light. Is this likely due to them just being cheap £30 halfords jobbies (55w ring rectangular driving lamps) or a bad earth/connection somwhere? Thanks

Ok cheers. Thought so but it's always best to check with wiring. Don't want to go electrocuting myself again. :doh:
