Even with a2resource it's extremely helpful of you to go through the Ce2 box in such great detail. Thanks for this!

[@RestoDesignsnando]

Thanks mate, I should of mentioned a2resource, as that site is a life saver at times. 👍🏼

Great video, love the info and the amount of useful info in this video is crazy dude. This MK2 is coming along nicely.

[@RestoDesignsnando]

Thanks mate 🙏🏼

[@Editionone13]

Very handy with this video, am gonna change my dashboard soon, so I want to build electric windows in my mk2. And the buzzer for the light. And the wires for electric mirrors. Thank you 😊 👍

dont suppose you fancy a trip to my house to sort the wiring on my mk2 16v / mk3 vr6? 👍👍😅

[@RestoDesignsnando]

If you're not too far, why not. You in the UK? I know a lot of great wiring gurus.

[@ravenmaster6364]

@@RestoDesignsnando that's awesome thanks, Manchester based, have been struggling with the 3 sensors on the head (wiring broken) as the cables are non standard colours for identification due to the previous owner carrying out an other wise near factory abf conversion which has retained the kjet system 👍👍👍. My mk3 vr needs the clifford immobiliser removing 🙈, im not a wiring man at all sadly! many thanks

[@ricardosmythe2548]

Do you take on jobs doing these conversions on mk2's? Im looking to buy a 20vt conversion when I move house next year but there are not many garages locally who would carry out this kind of work. Nice to see these kind of expertise still exist.

[@RestoDesignsnando]

Thank you for your comment, unfortunately I'm based in Central Portugal( I take it you're from the UK?) and I'm also fully booked up till early 2025.

[@RestoDesignsnando]

hi John, yes same CE2 fuse box as on your Corrado mate, 👍🏼

[@KRAMPUS_G60_16V]

Awesome work! I really respect the knowlege. 🙂 So I have a question. Can you please help me how to get rpm working on my 1Z swapped into the CE1 MK2? Where from do I get the signal, and does it need any conversion?

[@RestoDesignsnando]

OK you will need to use the W signal from alternator and the adjust the crank and alternator pulley to keep the same ratio as the standard mk2.

[@KRAMPUS_G60_16V]

[@theboatgoat]

ncie work on the windows, wish yuod have shown where everythingplugs in to though (power / ignition etc)

[@RestoDesignsnando]

Thanks, ok yes I didn't really show due to its just red wire clips into the fusebox, earth clips into the earth block near the fusebox, grey/blue wire just taps into any grey/blue wire which is 'lights on +12v' and the black/yellow wire is key on +12v hope this helps.

[@theboatgoat]

@@RestoDesignsnando thats great thanks, can you tell me where you connected teh red wire in teh fuse box? Sorry if thats pain to remember / decribe

[@RestoDesignsnando]

@@theboatgoat yes it clips near the big main +12v red wire that comes from the battery, you'll see 2 or 3 smaller pins which are the same size for the window red wire. It goes into any one of those 2 or 3 pins.

[@theboatgoat]

awesome thanks@@RestoDesignsnando

[@bloolouis]

I wish i'd read the comments before i bought a new loom! Defo need to adverstise your stuff on the video! Have you got a window loom diagram? Im just about to pull the dash out and do the windows at the same time. Thankyou so much for the videos, its genuinely so appreciated

[@RestoDesignsnando]

Glad you find the videos useful 👍🏼 I don't have a diagram for the window loom unfortunately.

[@bloolouis]

Hey nando, I know your site says you're put of stock of the electric window loom but wondering if that's completely accurate?

[@user-qm1ri7fg7h]

Also do you know what I need to add the seat belt warning light in my seat ibiza ? I see that it is possible because the cluster has the picture but it doesn't have a bulb in the socket. If you would do it in the mk2 it would be a very nice video

[@RestoDesignsnando]

I don't know, but guessing you'll need a lot from a North American mk3.

[@bobdelaplage690]

Hi mate, thx, how activate rear windshield wiper?

[@user-qm1ri7fg7h]

How did you connect the coolant light in the car cluster because i have a sear ibiza and i want to do it so basically i need to put a bulb there and do the connection you show us and it will show up in the cluster?

[@RestoDesignsnando]

The mk2 has the coolant light as standard it's just the basic cars not have the sensor. Sorry I have not idea about the mk3/6K seat cluster.

Great video thanks for the tips. I had a few question the the harness. Do you know if there is an US spec car with the same harness? The vehicle you mentioned are not sold in the US

[@RestoDesignsnando]

[@RestoDesignsnando]

Thank you, luckily have a load on the shelf, I still come across mk2's here in the breakers. Try "mk2 spares uk"

[@juanclopgar97]

Hi! I'm trying to convert my MK2 and place electric mirrors in the way they were intended, so It would be amazing if you can help me with next question. Does the window buttons iluminate when you open the switch with your key (ignition), or they only are lighted up once you press the parking lights button as the hazard warning button. (sorry if it is not clear enough, I'm not to use to CAR terminology on English). Can you show or provide the part number of the fuse above the relay and how are they connected each other.I saw it is not a convensional fuse, looks like a thermofuse. this would be so helpful. Thank you!

[@MK2GolfStories]

Sorry what did relay 292 plug in to??

[@RestoDesignsnando]

key 12+, door pin earth and the lights.

[@nanayaw1797]

hi ,i have vw golf mk2 in the USA. My question is, can i use wiper RELAY 99 from UK on my VW GOLF MK2 here in the the USA? i will be buying online from UK to USA.

[@RestoDesignsnando]

I don't really know, but I can't see why the USA CE2 fusebox would be different as far as the wiper relay is concerned.

[@thomasainlay924]

You can find a 99 relay in just about any MK3 VW in a US junkyard. Probably in B3 Passats as well.

[@xprayforapugx851]

How do you wire electric windows for ce1?

[@RestoDesignsnando]

Very easy, just us the ce2 wiring loom or the polo ce2 conversion looms I sell on my site, both loom have a brown which is earth, thick red wire +12v, black/yellow wire which is key on +12v and a grey/blue wire which you just connect to any other grey/blue wire, which it lights on +12v
