    What's the gridlock period in LA? Whenever I drive to and from Germany I need to plan the drive so I hit east of Warszawa (Poland) in the middle of the night. Morning and evening means bumper-to-bumper with semi trucks with no air to breathe for dozens of miles.

    Actually, the TC can handle some serious cargo as well. I have put at least a metric ton in my Mk1 van and it was fine. I'm yet to overload my new one

    My cargo TC with a rigid bulkhead has a lousy A/C.

    I also got a rock in my face from an oncoming gravel truck, saw it coming, the whole thing took 0.3 seconds. Exactly the same spot,HUGE bang, almost got a heart attack. Just a tiny chip in the glass.

    I wash my radiator with a a tar solvent and a pressure washer every time I use it. Keeps it really clean.

    I have used a website which is like a broker for scrapyards, I fill in my car make, model, year and the required part. They will make a query to all their partners and I will get and answer right away. It's a free service. If you don't have such a service in your area then it's better to give them a call or visit their websites, usually they list all cars the have available as parts.

    How about a grille mesh some people have installed?

    There's a sliding seal next to the brake light, is it in place?

    Nevermind the build. Awesome beard, man.

    My barn doors have been tight, no leaks.

    Only a pair in the back. The front row is essentially like in any standard passenger car.

    Try resizing the image, 1024 pixels wide is good enough and is much smaller in file size. Any resize app works, or do it online, just a random service http://www.picresize.com/

    I doubt they changed anything since the last facelift (the whole US run of Mk1).

    I bought a set of WS70 for my Mazda 6 once, was like driving on a waterbed.
  18. mrtn
    True, Mk1 is superior in the snow.

    The left side buttons are for front and rear fog lights, respectively.
  20. mrtn
    True. We also have a law that you can't get out of the car in the dark on the highway without a reflective vest (like the road workers use).
  21. mrtn
    Exactly.

    No, mine's equipped. No need to fiddle with hex wrenches.

    They stripped the US market variant of the power adjuster knob.

    I asked my dealer to turn off the feature. They said it's a safety feature and can't be turned off.
  25. mrtn
    Oh, if it's a bracket then I don't know. I assumed he was talking about the heated windshield which would block some of the GPS signal.
