    No head lights....help!!!

    combo switch? I did try the wipers and they worked. Our ignition switch is getting *****y, and gets worse depending on how cold it is (meaning that sometimes it needs a wiggle for it to light the starter). It is supposed to warm up today. Do you think if I go home and the lights are working...

    No head lights....help!!!

    Dead turbo cured!!! you'll never quess!

    Your exactly right. My lower cover is no more...it has been abused by its close proximity to the ground and was in such poor condition that I removed it. Maybe I'll go ahead and make that aluminum one I've been thinking about.

    Dead turbo cured!!! you'll never quess!

    WTB: TT/R32 Spindles, Shine suspension parts

    thanks for the info indigo, but I believe that the h2sports lower your vehicle don't they? Ground clearance is a must for where I live, hence wanting to retain the stock ride height.

    WTB: TT/R32 Spindles, Shine suspension parts

    I have been reading for quite a long time here, but this is the first post in this forum I believe. We'll see if the info is in there now. I am looking for just the spindles/knuckles from the TT/R32 so that I can change my camber curves. I don't really have much interest in bigger brakes at...
