    so we picked up this 92 mk2 gti, almost everything has been replaced on this thing inc new koni adjustable shocks, a new 2l Audi block, re trimmed seats etc.
    i just need to finish putting the interior back together tune her up and drive the sh#t out of it up and down our mountain
    we are new to water cooled stuff so hope you all don't mind some questions.

    The one that goes on the steering wheels middle? They are very rare, but when I was searching ~9months ago, Brisbane VW had one that they could ship in.

    Thanks for that i'll give them a call tomorrow.
    Yep its Ron's old car, ended up getting it for a lot less than advertised so pretty happy with it so far, just have to finish the small stuff off.
