The MkIII DIY Thread

[dylan8]

I just did mine in the mk3 and I needed a single flat each side. Might depend what unit you have

Making two U shaped tools did the trick. Then I found the new aerial was a standard plug on the end not the Euro plug. A quick trip to Supercheap but they could only order it for $21. I walked to Autobarn nearby and they had the correct adaptor for $10 with the same part number and manufacturer that Supercheap was going to get.

HANDY!!!!! window reg fix!

Thanks I found this really useful in helping me fit a repair kit that I bought from ebay. The moderator should put it with the other guides in the first post

My cable tie in my reg assembly broke last night after work. So at 12:30AM in the heat I was fixing this by just bolting it shut after taking the reg out, not something I wanted to do after a 9 hour shift in the heat.
Looks like the cable tie could keep up with the strain for a few months after becoming weak and breaking. I wonder if it's possible for a more permanent fix, or is it just bad luck?

Hello!

Does anyone know where to get replacement side mirror caps?
(the plastic front face)

Would be super appreciative.

Thanks,

Ebay is your friend although in this case international postage is not:

VW Golf MK3 92-98 Vento 92-98 - OE Quality Right Side Wing Mirror Cover Black

If you are in Sydney, you could try Camden GTI who seem to have a fair few Golf 3 parts in stock or some of the wreckers around the traps such as Pick n Payless.
