Forgot to mention what happened Saturday am....
I dropped the B4 off at the body shop Sunday night, to get some rust on the front doors fixed. Pete dropped the car off Thursday, while I was at work. I didn't touch the car, because I didn't feel like putting the doors back together.
Saturday morning, I wanted to get it in a better position for reassembly. I was looking out the front door and activated the B4's remote starter. Pete left the car in gear, and it lurched into the rear of the Rabbit! The B4 was pushing the Rabbit towards the closed garage door!
HOLY FU*K, I never moved so fast! I was running outside, but was able to cancel the start command through the remote. Luckily, Pete had really pulled on the e-brake and the car never started. I had a decent amount of clutch smoke pouring from under the hood... the Rabbit was inches away from the garage door.
Amazingly, there was no damage to either car....
Otherwise, minor progress. I shortened the clutch and brake plug lengths, by about 2'. Need to locate the A4 pedal, to verify terminal type. Those wires will be shortened about 3'.
