I've had some time now with my Jetta and its quite a different beast from an MB, except for rust, it rusts in the same place (rockers under the doors) just like my MBs have.
I got the sunroof and interior lights working by unplugging the vacuum pump that runs the central locking. That beast is interesting as it looks just like the unit used in my '84 190D but with a different connector. Dr Fatty shows one on his site but its spendy, I plan to see if I can resurrect mine, for now I can live with no central locking. Managed to lose the headlights and wipers but that seems likely to be caused by failure of the ignition switch, cheap part if slightly annoying to replace. Spent some time today on basic rust remediation, driver's side stuff I could reach with the car on the ground and didn't have to weld to fix. A little fiberglass and some POR15 to stabilize, later I'll paint so it looks better. Next I'll do the same on the other side, then put it up so I can do some rocker rebuilding. Fortunately we just replaced our microwave so I've got a ready supply of metal ;) I've decided to call the sunroof Wilton or "The Wilton". Haven't figured out a name for the whole car yet. -Curt _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
