  1. Yeah the cable is the oem one that would go into the back of an airbag where you can plug in the resistors so you avoid the dash light. Plus can connect the new steering wheels horn. These don’t come with the kit so I bought this from the VW dealer. Basically allows you to fit an aftermarket wheel.
  2. Momo steering wheel boss kit - £40 Used for under a year. Genuine VW airbag cables as well for horn and airbag resistor.
  3. I have a pair of Recaro Pole Positions with red backs in good condition £780
  4. Anyone able to help here with a TDI? Here is a pic I found of a Polo TDI engine with the battery terminal. It has a wire which the lupo does not have. Here are a couple of my battery terminal and looks like I am maybe missing a few parts by this (parts 16 and 17). I have 5 terminals but every ebay one I see for lupos are 4: http://www.partsbase.org/vw/lupo-lupo-3l-tdi-lu-eu-2001-91500-battery-mounting-battery-battery-venting-battery-cover-fuse-socket/#p-vw-6x0998550a
  5. Is the fuse box terminal situated on top of the battery on the TDI the same as on all other lupos? The lid is missing from mine so fancy a fresh one but thought better check before searching for one.
  6. As soon as you pass 100k your £1500 investment will be worth £150. Sell up before you are declared bankrupt.
  7. Got the car started last night and the battery voltage jumped from 11.4V to 14V when idle. Think when the battery is put under load it is just too weak. So I have ordered a Bosch S5 battery which hopefully will sort things out. Thank you for the advise.
  8. Jon are you able to share details of the fix? All seems very secretive!
  9. Would the car still run ok without the squirt? I take it under the seat there are two functions to this pump? One when running and one to prime and since my car was running fine it is just the primer which is goosed?
  10. I will get a mate to pop round to jump start the car then check if the voltage across the battery moves to near 14v to check if the battery is being charged. I will probably check the voltage on the alternator too to double check. I am thinking perhaps the battery is nearing the end and under the load of starting the car it can not cope.
