Are they heated? Either way they do look very snug. Sweaty summer bumcrack looking, but nice and snug in the winter when warmed up! :)

ok got some Golf MK4 Aero arms and bosh aero blades. Drivers side was a straight swap for the original, but the passenegr side arm is about 2" too long, leaving the blade pretty much on the front wing and a big gap between the drivers blade.

I thought about cutting short the blade but ill be loosing screen coverage and the blade wouldnt be central to the arm, and didnt want to have to go through this every time i change blades so thought id modifiy the arm

Image

Image

I noticed that at the end of the arm, the blade holder is tightly wrapped together

Image

so i cut it off, hammered out the piece of arm that was in there and shortned the arm a further inch

Image

hammered the arm back into the balde bracket and trial fitted the arm to see how far i need to bring it in or out

Image

then glued for extra stability

Image

then P40 for more stability
Image

then P38 to smooth the underside off, sanded, primer filler, black gloss paint
Image

Image

Image

Image

Finish hasnt got to be perfect as you wont actually ever see it.

Trail fit

Ok, my poor Leon has endure all the snow, rain and the London speed ramps over the last few months and its all took its toll

The cars now on 172K and there are problems are creeping in

First off i had a rear hubcentrric spacer destroy itself meaning iam back to standard ET on the LCR alloys and lost the 15mm poke i was enjoying

Second problem is the handbrake light keeps on flashing and making 3 beeps, normally when the handbrake is applied or just braking to a standstill or accelerating off a standstill, never say when driving down the mototrway. might be a handbrake sensor issue or braking, abs, clutch issue, or handbrake sticking

Third problem, clutch is starting to play up, when lifting the clutch pedal slightly the car jolts forward like you have had a little knock from behind, occasionally gets stuck in 1st when pulling off, with revs seeming to drop and the clutch louder then normal

Front splitter destroyed over all the London speed bumps they stick on ever fucking road, as if theres any need for them as your lucky if you get over 20mph with all the traffic, so ive now removed it.

and final problem tonight is the turbo making a police siren noise ?
dont know if its on its way out or its got an air\boost leak somewhere, its feeling under powered but to scared to proper boot it encase i damage it more if that is the problem

as far as i know its still on the original clutch and turbo or it certainly has been in the last 70K of its total 172K since in my ownership

Gonna have to save up now for big clutch, turbo, manifold, injectors, and map now.

on a brighter note i sanded back the black painted front badge that was peeling from all the stone chips and carbon wrapped it, goes better with the flyeyes now.

With regards to the brake light and clutch issues, have you checked your brake fluid isn't just a bit low? As the light will come on when you change direction and move the fluid around in the bottle and trigger the switch. Also if its a hydraulic clutch which I imagine it is may be related.
Just a thought :)

Hope its all an easy fix though.

Fitted some H&R 15mm (30mm Per Axel) Hubcentric spacers to the rear after my cheap ebay ones destroyed themselves. Hoping these will last the distance.
