    What did you do to your MKIV today?

    Yeah the pass side was no fun. driver's was quick. Never been called a wet sider, kinda like it. As for today, swapped my dome light assembly, no change. Won't come on with the doors. You would figure at least ONE door would turn it on. Doesn't come on like my 99s do with the alarm either...

    I am a glutton for punishment. I got another one.

    Hey guys and gals. Its been a while and I haven't had time to do my swap yet on my 99s. So I bought 2 more cars.

    01 New beetle glow plug wiring diagram

    I have googled it. Every day for the last week. I either get the spam sites that done do anything but give ads for things I don't need OR the 4 wire GP diagrams. Which neither help what I'm working on.
