Hahaha yeah it does look similar to an EG one, its from a Daihatsu Charade! Surprisingly i only had to cut the tabs off the side and the back to be able have enough room to use the window winders. Still not perfect but its a good enough attempt at a swap for my first time haha. Will be mounting the brackets on the weekend and trying to get the cluster to work :) Keen!
Oh really? I'm polo swapping mine but this is interesting
howd you go fitting the mk3 wiper motor? do you just cut the connector off the mk1 one and match up the wires colour to colour from the mk3 harness?
Exactly that, the colours are the same on both connectors. Super simple swap and crazy faster :)Quote:

Am going to email them and ask for help however.

Now i noticed i haven't really posted and chassis pictures of the new golf so this post will be a little picture heavy. I have taken pictures of the rust and a rough mockup of the dash ! Sort of got the new cluster to work, little confusing but give me time and it will all mostly be working.
