I am finally getting the new GLI today.  A 1990 with 61,000 miles.  I would 
have had it saturday but the battery was dead.  He hooked it up to a battery 
charger to jump it (I recommended not to) and he must have had it on the 
wrong voltage because the starter got fried.  This is probably a good thing.  
Maybe the starter was bad to begin with.  He replaced it yesterday.  This is 
the car I had mentioned a couple of weeks ago and needs the following:  A new 
front motor mount, new strut bearings.  Now I have heard alot of people 
putting solid front motor mounts and VR6 bearings on their cars.  What would 
you guys recommend?  I email someone at partsforvws.com about vr6 bearings 
and lowering caps(?) but never heard back from them.  Also what brand solid 
mount would be recommended?  
     One more thing.  I noticed when sitting in the car that the power recaro 
on the drivers side wasnt working.  Bad regulator?

Pics to come soon

TIA, 
Brian
