Im sure you will solve the puzzle but those wires look scary!

Im sure you will solve the puzzle but those wires look scary!

my plan is in the end to use bits of both looms car an caddy .
front lights rads from caddy , engine ,ecu,bulkhead an all the dash from the scirocco . so i should be able to run the digital heater dials ,standard alarm an the ipod adaptor.
then run the standard rear end loom , so i should still be able to plug in to obd port, an all the standard allarm an immobilzer .

i think any way lol i have it all working in my head lol just got to get it in the van .

its that or stip everything down on the car loom an just use the engine loom , get rid of the coded key an run it piggy back on the van loom .

think the full loom is better it will look trick with all the switches an heater in a one off dash

What a result picking up that engine with only 500 miles on the clock. That poor scirocco must have been a right mess!

Hope you've got somewhere nice and dry to keep it while your tearing it apart

[smartuki]

the scirocco was mushed but most roof and rear so nuthing i needed was damaged , i got everything i could lol.
need to find some rear discs now cos im not sure the ones from the rocc are going to go again , mite go an price it all up new .

anyone know exactly what parts are needed to do the discs on the rear ??

i hope to just get the engine in an get it running with the standard full loom over a weekend
then spend a few weeks cutting unwanted stuff away an graftting the two looms togeter ruff then i will take out the hole lot an loom it up properly .

i need to get hold of the standard ac heater switches from a 11 rocco an see if i can get it all to work
