Picked some 3dr VR6 seats up today. I asked about them a week ago but turned them down when the old guy there said he wanted 80 notes . Go there again today on behalf of a workmate and ask again, this time someone different, £30
Anyway, after removing them from the wet and glass ridden car stacked on another. Love breakers yards

Front 2 are the 3dr seats, rear 2 are from a 5dr that AL gave me when i collected the van. Going to use those to make the reclining 1's look as mint as possible.

yeh, what fun that was!

seats should be sweet lee!

Trimmed my rear arches back approx 10mm to cater for my wider wheels this weekend. Did 1 side yesterday and the other today after collecting another TDi van(back to that later)
Standard...

Trimmed...

After making the cut, i undersealed the edge/lip then stonechipped it for protection from rot. Only heard the tyres rub on 1 dip in the road which is really bad so i pleased with the outcome. will just have to recoat the arch every now and then.
Anyway, got my wheels on in time for todays meet, also got my vr seats fitted too



Few pic's next to Steves(skinhead) TDi van we won on ebay last night for the bargain price of 1K. Really is a buyers market at the mo

im liking this

looks good nice to see steves got one aswell.

Looks sweet as bud, swap the vr for it...

I bet ya would


Pic of my vr seats
Used a passenger side 5dr seat base to repair the 3dr drivers seat
No rips or bolster wear

Her indoors would kill me if i sold the VR6 now

can ya drop me a pm wid ya number please, remember you sayin about my little scratches and swirl marks at last meet and just wondering on prices for a little TLC,

Dave

So much as i love ya vr mate, it be suicide for me to trade in my 500 miles to a tank diesel

Caddy's Rule anyway

You have PM

My van did'nt come with a rev counter when i got it so i planned to plumb 1 in.
Well, the other day i stripped the dash out of the 1.4 ibiza i breaking and noticed that the clocks seemed the same.
Was only til i held the ibiza clocks up to the light that i noticed the diesel glow plug light was on them aswell, just a case of swapping a bulb over to light it up.

Swapped my clocks round and hey presto, 1.4 petrol clocks working in my diesel van
They also a funky yellow colour

Got myself a replacement passenger door last weekend as my original had a crease in it.
It came off an Inca van so the side moulding is much wider meaning it was time to remove the other mouldings on the van



Door looks a shade out so i'll mist over it when i re-do my bumpers. I'll see how it looks when i mop over the whole van.
As you can see, i refitted my steelies so i can re polish the lips on my rm's.

That looks smart! liking it without the mouldings

looking clean dude...looks loads smoother without the mouldings on

Cheers lads

does look better without them, as do most things

vans looking sweet mate and nice little touch on the clocks:D

Yeah I like the clocks too, and the rest is looking really smooth

I had to read back to see what coilies you were on as I thought they were quite comfy the other week

Cheers again lads.

Just won some other TDi clocks on ebay so may swap again but use red led bulbs.

Robbed this pic from someone who'd taken them at the Ace on tuesday lol

looks good lee!

looks good without the rub strips. your lucky that there only stuck on making it an easy bit of smoothing.
