jus got back from ibiza seen this to remind me…
here is how the engine bay looks now,had to make the rad brackets.i just couldn't find them anywhere,made with 2mm alloy sheeting,look pretty good for 30 min work.
new vw s just not the same,all this off to replace a poxy sensor (tdc pick up) still awkward when stripped this much
