Re: Caddy rs3 build
A few bits done 2day got some Touran door trims off a follow forum member and some s5 sill trims just need to get them prepped ready to be fitted. I've had for some time now some footwell lights genuine ones from a mk7 golf I've made some brackets and fitted them in still need to wire them up battery was a bit flat so lights don't look very bright also fitted some rear mud flaps ?? If that's what you call them lol also been rebuilding my new front brakes I've been sandblasting and painting them up will update the photos when I take some next week.

Re: Caddy rs3 build
So my cecm unit come the other day and I went to fit it and code a few bits in but unfortunately some one has tryed to update the vcds at work and haven't done it correctly so it's not working so wasn't able to do anything on that side but I did wire in and pin in the footwell lights did a bit more of prepping ready for next weekend when the new chassis rails get put in on the rear ready for the new rear end and I've started on the front wheel arch trims off the all road caddy

Re: Caddy rs3 build
So some more done 2day so all the brackets have been removed from the rear end and the new chassis legs have been trimmed and being put into place 2moz will be trimed up so they fit better and will check double check and check again on all the measurements then rear axle will be temporarily bolted up for me to check it on the lasers if all comes back ok and we can get on with welding it in and bracing it early start tomorrow tho to get it done 'll upload more photos tomorrow. Also my mk2 golf coil overs come the other day so will be able to mark and cut out wheel arches ready for the new turrets

Re: Caddy 4 wheel drive build
So if anyone asks me is it a easy mod to do then NO never again lol all the new chassis legs are spot welded on I've learnt a lot and still learning as I go but the axle is in and aligned a few bits still to do be For I can start welding it all up not much room but the top banana arm but I do have a plan regarding that and also still need to mark up and cut out the Archers for the suspension turrets but slowly getting there.
