What did you do to your mk6/7 today?

[loot]

A hammer, why didn't I think of that I'll have to stop using Stanley blades it'll all be cleaned up and painted/wrapped/something

Anyway it might have to be altered as the switches now catch the ashtray. N

It's only because I care that i say these things
I wouldn't want you to be out cruising for chicks and one gets in and sees it.......

Duct tape stops them moaning still need that shifty eye emojiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii.

I drilled the holes with a 16mm wood drill hole cutter bit thing and the dam switches are 17mm so had to file the hole N

Almost finished with adding 2x extra seats for our campervan conversion. (yes.. need some rust prevention )

Bolted an Inverter in the cab....
Which leads to a question... can this be connected to the battery all the time?
Also I removed the radio to get the V number as I need the code.

If you mean connected even when the ignition is off then I would say not. Even with no load an inverter is going to be drawing current from the battery while connected.

dont want to start a new topic for this.

i am looking for a new/fresh gearbox. the second gear is starting to get really bad. lots of grinding teeth and when feathering it sometimes drops out with more grinding as a result.
i know the 6 speed is the same in final ratio but is that one less sensitive to the syncro eating itself?

also thinking of getting a 6 speed (if it fits) and pulling that apart and replacing the meshes before fitting it.

what gearbox model/type can a search for exactly? what cars are those boxes also used in?

If you're RWD, I have a 6 speed that's in good condition I was going to use to convert mine to 6 speed. It's about 20mm longer than the 5 speed, so you need to alter the prop.

Could be yours for a negotiated amount of beer tokens

sadly i have a FWD thanks to it being a SWB...

that POS is a real SOB sometimes.
