After 14 previous owners, almost nothing on this poor old girl matches up to original specs and layouts, but I'll look it up.

Yeah that's an idea, but first, I need to find where the wires are. Or start again with new wires

Yep I knew that... I'm replying to mojo about the centre console. My other reply is about the switches you're talking about.

I've only got 3 switches on there... Heated window, hazards, and interior light.

I'll have to take the (after market) centre console cover plate off and have a look. Maybe the PO that installed it just covered it up if I'm lucky.

One of the things that hasn't worked since I've had my 1987 90, is the rear wiper. So, I decided to take a look last night. I fell at the first hurdle though, when I realised I have no idea how to turn it on?! I don't seem to have a dedicated switch for it, is it supposed to just come on when I...

Ah ok, that's easy enough. Cheers!

I can't even find the right point to fit it to on the back of the head. God I'm useless lol.

Yeah I'm struggling to find anything like that, which suggests to me it's missing. But where would I attach one of I'm doing it myself, is there somewhere specific/recommended? Or just any old bit of engine metal to any old bit of bodywork?

Hi all, I've got a 1987 90, converted to 300tdi. I recently had the 300tdi replaced with a newer 300tdi. All is well, except for one small annoying thing... temperature readings. I'm pretty certain the actual engine temperature is fine, and I've swapped out the sender, then tried replacing my...

I saw it in LRO, I was going to come on here and say something, but forgot!

I've got myself a set of flatdog extended wheel arches (PM789) but I'm a bit confused about fitting. The badly photocopied instructions don't mention anything about the existing arches. Do I just take the old ones off? That seems OK at the back, but at the front the arches form part of the...

What on earth are you doing coasting at 60mph out of gear?! lol.

I was just wondering the same thing - it would seem you have 1 intended superfluous hole (the threaded one), and one unintended superfluous hole - I wonder what someone was up to with that?!

Resolved... It's a grounding issue. All the other lights on that back corner seem happy with it but not the indicator. New ground cable has made it all go away.

A few months back I changed my old 1987 90 over to LED side lights, indicators and break lights. After all sort of issues with the old wiring, and making some changes on the dash so I could pop an LED light in there too, I finally got there... Or so I thought. Yesterday my wife followed me...

I need to pick up 300tdi engine this week. Any ideas what its dimensions are when out of the car? Need to make sure I borrow the right sized trailer.

Anyone in Essex got a trailer I can borrow on Thursday? I need to go pick up a 300TDi engine from the garage and bring it home.

The last MOT was July, I bought it in October. So maybe the PO did it during this period. However there are several other failable things I have found that must have predated the last MOT. This poor old girl was a used and abused offroader before I came along and gave it some love, and I suspect...

I think where this is a 300tdi conversion, a lot of things have been moved about to accommodate, the horns being one of them. I'd just assumed they were in the original location, more fool me.
