For some reason the ibiza loom runs around like a lhd car and emerges well into the drivers side much like this lhd us car.

I'd like to make dovw but i is looking doubtful but im still full steam ahead. If worse comes to worse, im gonna take the plates off the cl and use it on the gl since they are both red

The ecu in the cupra sits right in front of the driver.

Are you sure you havent got the wire stretched too tightly somewhere, to stop you having enough slack to put it in the right place?

But thats where the wiper mechanism goes looney, the plug emerges where that pollen filter is in that pic whereas normally the golf ecu sits where the middle wiper arm attachment is (on that above pic). Not much of a biggie but still a pain in the ass when i wanted the raintray back in today

So just move it a bit. You can take it off the metal bracket if the smaller size will fit. Its all covered by the plastic cover anyway.

These pics do the better explaining. Even with the metal bracket off the ecu cant fit behind the wiper mechanism, and there isnt enough length in the loom to move it to the other side.

The single wiper linkage is half the size of the normal one so the ecu should fit nicely on the side. A bit ricey but meh!
