    Great work so far!

    Well that tags are going to expire tomorrow, for the emissions. Maybe by some miracle we'll get the wiring done by tomorrow!!!!

    Wish I had it more together when I was 15 (I had an automatic Accord for my first car). I'm glad to see some younger kids in this forum picking up on nice cars early, and straying away from the general cookie cutter ricebox **** that infests most high school parking lots. Enjoy it man, this things gonna be a blast.

    Thanks! I'm very glad I didn't end up with a crap box. The first car I looked at was a Mk2 GTI 16v that was for sale for $900 it was a steal, but someone got there before me. ha

    What 1 piece speedo cable will work with the original instrument cluster? The MKII is different.

    Just a little update, starting to put back the interior. Lights are working, along with other stuff. I'll post some more pictures once I can find some AA batteries to put in this camera
    But for now all I have is one.
    Just a little junk yard find, they didn't even charge me for it at all! Of course this is an after photo; just washed it and Black to Black'd it. The current one is cracked, missing pieces, and they bolts are stripped, but this one is perfect! Was even able to pull the clips without destroying them!

    It's starting to go back together finally, slowly but it's making progress.
