Very useful video. I have a 1985 Mk 2 scirocco GTX and it leaks into the drivers footwell. I've been offered some new golf mk2 sunroof drain pipes but I don't know if they are the same as a scirocco. Would you know if they fit? Cheers.
@dreadnoughtcustoms
@dreadnoughtcustoms 6 ай бұрын
Glad you found the video helpful. The drain pipe is just a piece of tubing so could be the same, however you’ll need to remove the roof lining to replace it so you’d need to be very sure there’s an issue with it first as that’s a big job. I’d say it’s unlikely the hose needs to be replaced, at worst it’s come disconnected from sunroof tray.

I'm getting a 1988 Scala 'barn find' for free which should be a fun project. Dry stored in a garage for the past 20 years so hopefully in decent condition (haven't been able to fully inspect yet) - will probably get shot if it starts getting too pricey but can't complain for an upfront of £0. Very helpful video, will definitely be using it when I do my full inspection.

Thanks for a very useful video. In the bit about where to look for rust at 8:14 you say that rust around the rear beam mounts is the worst place for rust, can rust in that area be repaired (albeit with time and expertise) or is it actually not possible to safely sort it if it’s gone too far?
