  1. Currently both on eBay. Happy to do a private deal with anyone on the forum, See below... Collect Birmingham or can quote for a courier. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262832935316?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262832933137?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649 Cheers.
  2. Just replaced the wishbones in my arosa as the bushes were shot, wishbones themselves are in fantastic condition, just diddnt have the time or inclination to press the bushes out. I got one bush out, but the rest will need replacing before using these. If you're thinking of upgrading or replacing bushes and need new wishbones, these would be perfect. Original VW parts. £20 the pair, Birmingham.
  3. only doing a quick touch up job really. I am painting some bodywork scuffs soon, and im going to have some laquer left over that needs using, and thought i would have a go at stripping and repainting the plastic centre caps on the alloys, which have started to flake, and have seen a fairly bad touch up by a previous owner. just wondered if anyone's sourced paint for this. I cant seem to see as alloys have particular codes for the paint, it seems to be just metallic silver. Any advice appreciated. thanks
  4. I'm looking at fitting some under-dash cup holders Into my arosa. I'm aware these can be got from the the lupo and will fit, however a very similar looking part seems to be present on some polos. Anyone done this? Will it fit? Cheers
  5. all sorted now. I bit the bullet, gave it a good pull, and managed to give myself enough room to scrape the dirt out. seems the trim was a little bent on the inside which was stopping it from cliping in properly, managed to push in from underneath with the bonnet up and hey presto! all sorted.
  6. This piece of trim on my arosa doesn't seem to be fitted properly on the drivers side, and as such, is packed with dirt which is now growing moss. Anyone ever had this piece off so I can give it a good clean, and if so any pointers in the best way about it?? Don't fancy pulling and jabbing with a screwdriver in the fear of cracking the window! Cheers
  7. That's exactly how my arosa one looks. I assume the gator can be reused. I'm right in thinking there's a clip underneath the gator and removing this lets you get everything off?
  8. Hi all, So one piece of interior trim in my Arosa which puzzles me most, is the plain black gear knob, next to the chrome and patterned handle of the handbrake. The gear knob from the Lupo is a perfect match, can I assume it will be an easy swap? Anyone with experience on this? No intentions of buying a brand new item ... but this is what im after to fit http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Lupo-Gear-Knob-1998-2006-Shift-Knob-Genuine-Brand-NEW-/271311798572? pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f2b71812c Cheers!
  9. I had this on my front nearside light. Its worth checking the back of the light is actually clipped on properly to maintain the seal, they have a tendency to seem like they're properly seated when they're infact not. The nearside front is particularly tricky if you've got big hands, as there is not much of a gap between the back of the light and the battery, but it can be done. If they seem to be loose, dry out the light first before fixing. A couple of mins with a heatgun on low, or a hairdryer blowing into the back will do the trick. just don't melt anything nearby! No idea about the back lights, not had this problem, cant really go wrong in removing them anyway, and checking the seals.
