So went digging this morning trying to figure out why the number plate lights wouldn't work, cleaned the contacts, no change, then got the meter out and there wasn't a Meg out of themImage took off the rear cover and found that the cable wasn't plugged in after someone had the rear number plate lights holders outImageImage
Plugged it in and all good, also replaced a few blown blubs and cleared the fault with my new caristaImageImage

@markyk

Where did you get the rail covers from?

Mirrors look spot on aswell.

Both top of my list 👍

Hi man
I got them from a guy on fb. He also lists on eBay here’s the link. This is for the maxi x2 rails. He offers them plain or painted.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Caddy-2K- ... 890.l49286

Mirrors also from him Image
