It depends how much thread you have exposed once the steels are fitted. You can shorten the studs with a hacksaw also. You may find that you cannot get the full torque on your nuts with some extended studs.

Remove boot. 50mm socket. Big press. Refit boot.

Cif cream is supposed to bring fibreglass up a treat.

Theres lots of wheel info on the brick-yard mate. Have a butchers in the wheel help section.

Brickwerks sell em mate. Let this be a lesson. Buy cheap......Buy twice.

1. Get it reliable.
2. Get it as rust free as you can.
3. Get it used.
4. Get it painted if youre still having fun/ haven't had enough of spending cash on it.

Join the MK5 forum and there will be someone close to you that will fit one for you using the proper VW kit.

I think I did put a few pics up last year sometime. Sorry you missed it.

There a load is rubbish to be honest. They will never seal properly and will probably break whilst you are trying to get them to seal. Buy some decent second hand genuine items. You will regret buying these.

I have a couple of these, good for a car, but not really suitable for a van. Saying that though they would probably fit at a push. At that price you can easily find a Fiamma on eBay, search for fiamma bike rack, people are not specific enough when listing them, last one I purchased was £3.50!

I'd go for the reversed 1.8t every time!

Sliding door retaining catch gasket may have failed. Or you window seal.

Legend! Thank you!

Lesson learnt! To be fair I did the same but with second hand securon ones. So someone obviously did the same before selling to me too. Buy from just kampers buy twice......

Hi, I've just replaced my radiator and the boot that covers the fan switch connection has disintegrated, anyone know what order the wires go in the switch?
