Is that an OEM intercooler? Forgive me for not bothering to read the entire thread to find out. Haha.

[GoLfMan]

as far as I can tell (plastic side's) Yes Preeny it is

[GOLFBALLS]

Well, kinda. It's OEM Mercedes!

Came from a Mercedes Sprinter diesel van. Thats why its called the 'sprintercooler'. Heheh

[Preen59]

Hahaha. Very nice. I like it!

Hi.
Has anyone here converted their quad-light GTI grille to the normal grille? I've found a NOS twin light (one light per side) with the red stripe but I'm not sure about whats involved in changing the setup for the high-beam?

I'd keep my normal quad-light grille but the rhs hibeam wont fit in front of the intercooler

I wont have many updates as i'm still in Adelaide.

Cheers

Take a look on our Golf Wade...

[GOLFBALLS]

Very nice.
I'll just go without high beam. Dont use it much anyway!!
Hey dorian, did you need to shave metal off your master cylinder to stop the engine banging into it?

you dont need to mate if you have g60 mounts

I do, but I dont really trust the quality of those GSF items? I can move it a little by hand if i give it a good solid wrestle!

[GOLFBALLS]

Thought i'd better give a little update. Nothing has happened since i've been away and as a result, I've told Joe to put in the wheel bearings and KW's and I'll come and tow it home to finish it myself. Pretty pissed off really that its not done.
Its also been a struggle financially to keep buying parts....

Chin up yo, you'll get there!
