  1. This is absolutely stunning! I wish I knew how to get this exported to South Africa!
  2. Please can you send me a pic of what you looking for and I will look around
  3. Screw covers in black please. My interior plastics have been resprayed black. got no issues with second hand bud, as long as it's good nick that would be fantastic 😬
  4. Rich, would love to help, but how will I send you this carpet? I must warn you, South Africa has the worst postal service ever! and Courier's are very pricey, but maybe if you earning in pounds it might not seem too much. So let me know how I can help.
  5. Good day all, I like to be very detailed in things I do, so lets hope I impress you both with my concise list 😉 - @Rich & @mk2 I've attached a pdf, let's hope it works. Lupo parts needed.pdf
  6. Dude You are a legend. I need to run through all the parts I need. The parts need to be in the mother in law's hands in Wales by 1 September so she can pack them in her luggage with no rush. Is this doable? So far off hand I can think of an Aerial (antenna & base), driver and passenger door handles (in black), and all the little screw covers from the interior, also all in black. Please let me know when you will be going to the breakers and if the 1st of September is doable? Lets maybe take the conversation offline. Again, thank you so much!
  7. Good day Club Lupo, I am looking for a very awesome and time generous member to assist me in acquiring some parts for my lupo. My Future mom in law in coming over to South Africa for my wedding in September from Swansea, Wales. And I would love to use this opportunity to get her to bring some small bits and bots that are damaged or missing from my lupo. Is there anyone here willing to help out a fellow Lupo lover get the parts I need from people breaking and then ship it off to Swansea? Please and thank you! (P.S. I have paypal which I can use to make payment for the parts) 🙏
  8. Hi there Club Lupo, The Volkswagen in South Africa says they can no longer get me the Fuel Filter for my Lupo. I just wanted to find out if someone on the other side of the sea could please just help me out by calling your local VW and see if they have stock. If they do then I will tell my local VW that the dealers overseas has stock, why can't they order one from there?!. Maybe if anyone can assist, maybe ask them if they can see if the part has been discontinued and if they sell out of the stock on hand, they will no longer supply the part? I really would appreciate the help. Fuel Filter - V 6N0 127 401H 1.4 TDI - AMF fuel filter 🙏 Regards, Jonno
  9. Thank you Henry. I managed to come right. I wedged a flat screw driver between the plastic and spring, then used a cable / zip tie to hold the spring in a compressed position then tapped out the pin, removed handle and put pin back in, so it is ready to get sprayed now 👍
  10. Apologies for reviving this old thread. I am also trying to get this chrome handle separated from the plastic. Does the spring have to be removed? and if so, is it and easy job to put back in afterwards?
  11. Hello fellow Dubbers. Here is the re upholstered seats. The Front seats are collapsible, just the way I intended 😁
  12. Hi friends, So the seats have still not been started, excuses and excuses from upholstery shop. In the meantime I got the lupo a sick set of 16" 7J OZ Ultraleggera - ORIGINAL! The 16" is super rare in my country, and also my all time favourite wheel. I had a set of Yokohama 205/45/16 S Drives that i removed, more due to the fact that they were maybe 7 years old. But also the tyre looked huge, I am super conflicted on what tyre size to go for, just wish there was a size in between 165/45/16 and 195/40/16. a 175/40/16 or a 185/40/16 would be amazing. I think I will opt for the 165/45/16 as I have had this size on both the TSW Imola wheels and Porsche Boxster wheels before. http://i1376.photobucket.com/albums/ah22/4Cough/FB_IMG_1486748575758_zpsoq5o67gf.jpg The plan is with the wheels: Change the colour from Crystal Titanium to another OZ optional colour, Matt Graphite Silver. Get the OZ Racing & Ultraleggera logos to pop by Painting them white. Then I would love a set of Central Lock caps, but from what I have seen on EBay, they are pretty much the price that I paid for the wheels, so my father and I are going to try replicate them and make them ourselves on his milling machine and lathe and get the centre piece 3D printed. (hopefully complete by January) Thought and suggestions welcome!
  13. Finally installing mine and looks like I have the same issue
  14. Hey Guys & Girls, So I finally getting the Cupra seats fitted into the lupo. What I want to achieve is that the seats stay on the standard lupo seat frame and guides and well as make them collapsible as per the original seat. Currently the top section is ready for upholstery, it should be complete by next week, but here is some progress pictures in the meantime. Seat backings 😍 Passenger seats side by side Test fit to make sure the Cupra seats were not too wide for the lupo Original Lupo frame used and just the wire portion cut from LC seat and welded onto lupo frame: Halfway there... Super excited for this to be completed. Here is the mock up of what I am planning to be done: Rear seats are also in. Hopefully I will have them back next week to update.
  15. Does anyone perhaps know what this is for? been in the car since I bought it.
