Re: A Good Caddy
Hi, I got my parts from lllparts.co.uk. I tried putting all the items into a basket just now and I didn't have any issues. Are you using the latest part numbers? Some parts may have 2 or 3 part numbers, make sure you are using the latest one.

Touring the Wild Atlantic Way in the Caddy. Some of the beaches in Donegal are breath-taking, took these with a drone yesterday.

Re: A Good Caddy
Any feedback on the quality of the TRW brakes dude? My rear callipers are munted and need replacing. The oem ones on LLL parts are about twice the price.

Re: A Good Caddy
Hi Lister mate, if you ever make it check out Donegal Wild Atlantic Way and The Ring of Kerry.
Hi Bob mate, its so picturesque it almost looks like a painting.
Hi Guy mate, so far so good but 2 things to note. You have to take the handbrake bracket off the old Caddy caliper and install it on the new caliper because they are from a Golf GTI and are a bit different, once you have both calipers in hand you will see what needs to happen, just mimic the Caddy caliper. New brake pipes needed also because the connection point on the calipers are in a different position.

Re: A Good Caddy
I have everything I need now to install dual zone climate AC in the van, hopefully I will have it installed just in time for winter.

Re: A Good Caddy
