Mk 1 Cabrio Starter Motor
I got it out by fishing around with a extended socket wrench, working absolutely blind, but dont know how I can fit this upper right bolt when refitting the starter……. Any ideas welcome.
BTW got a brand new solenoid ( which was the problem and had a dead earth ) for Malaysian Ringgit 105 ( about 30 quid) fitted. A Japanese equivalent to the original which works fine on the workshop floor……. Lets hope it works OK when I get this starter back in place !

Now another query….. I find that this car has a second solenoid upstream of the starter solenoid with this second relay fitted immediately behind the ignition coil in the wiper bay. Dont see the reason for this second solenoid as the solenoid operating current is quite low and cant find any reference to it in the manual.
Anybody seen this sort of mod before ??
