What I have done for now is fasten my rear seatbelts to stop them falling forward on hard braking etc. The plastic under shield is a dust, sound, and aero cover, but it should still always remain on unless you replace it with an aftermarket shield because it still better protection than no protection. It can also be damaged by improper towing with a wrecker, or wheel lift tow the type of tow truck that lifts only the front wheels with a metal yoke, as opposed to a flat bed which pulls the entire car onto a flat bed. I would use the other side of connector seat side to do this, so the car wiring is intact. Its shaped in a way so it can catch on the groves in the mk4 seat runners, but I can only assume the mk3 runners are a different design as this isnt neccessary and all it seems to do is make it almost impossible to adjust the seats.

Hi, what you need to do is first of all buy a cigarette lighter from a car store just get one of those universal ones or go to a scarp yard and get one from there, then all you have to do is wire it straight up to your battery!

The mk4 aluminum oil pan is easily road damaged. But when your hitting the red line and popping flames from your exhaust costs go out the window, cause who cares as long as your having from and obviously not breaking the law. The exhaust gas recirculation valve on the mk3 cars is part of the intake manifold and is not removable. These engines are more desired because of the more power they produce along with the available mods that come with this engine. The piston ring on the newer pistons is closer to the top.
