!WOW! Great color!

[elpassata]

Fitted the door glass and a wiring loom from a car that has front electric windows only. As is i cant them to work and I have swapped the control box and still no luck. There is 3 wires that Im not sure off. ones yellow/black and separates from the loom where the control box is, The other two separate from the loom near to the fuse box. ones black with a green plastic plug and the others a blue/grey wire which i think maybe to do with the lights. Also fitted the front lights and took some pics before my hand nearly dropped off through cold

Is this of any help?

Thanks , all helps. Lucky I have the daily to pull apart, got to be something simple as there's only one way the loom can fit

Door glass and door poppers are all now working. and it's starting to all come together. The saloon Heckleblend was never going to be a good fit on a wagon so it was cut up and then built in to a standard wagon tub

I ended up cutting it in to six parts in the end before gluing it all back together. The end result was that it fitted better was the lock was move 5mm outwards but it had horrible joins in it  so it was ditched and ended up on the daily




The tub from the daily will be modified so that I can do away with the reversing/fog light units which I think will make the rear end look a lot cleaner and wider making the car look lower
Dash is also in the car, fitted this morning so Im now ready for front and rear screens and sorting the rest of the electrics

Thanks for positive comments. Had the front and rear screen fitted today so it really looks like it coming along. However I did have a set back in that the sunroof jammed and when I tried to free it off part of the mechanism broke so it now looks like i need a replacement sunroof, any one know if a Golf one fits or do I have to stick with B3/4, fancy a glass one

I seem to remember reading somewhere that the glass of either the golf or passat is slightly bigger.

I've fitted the complete mechanism+windowroof of a Golf Mk3 (including the sunblind), leaves a small gap between roof and glassroof but no leakage so far, only if you throw a bucket of water directly on top it will drip for a few days 
AND the sliding motor/auto-cut-off-when-closed is different, so when you close the roof you need to release the switch at the right moment, or build in the motor+switches from the golf (different wiring, haven't looked in to it yet....)

I hope not I have bought a  moon sunroof from a B4 today

Moon roof fitted, USA tub extended and  some of the interior fitted all be temporary as the center console will need painting as will around the widow frames on the inside

Awesome! Looks good!
