How do you go about measuring it correctly without laser equipment?

A small, picture-less update: went on working on the mk4 yesterday, got ahead on the electronics. Climatronic is wired up now, as is the lighting-switch. still to be done are the regulator for interior lighting, alarmligthswitch, rear-window-heater-switch and boot-pop-switch.
So well underway, but not there yet

That focus on what you wish to achieve, and set your shims to the difference to compensate and get the figures you want.

Cheers! Old picture with my old RS001's, hoping the "new" set of RS001's will look even betterTim_GTi wrote: Liking the new sig
As far as the dash is concerned, still slowly working on the elecronics, already have the climatronic, rear-window-heater-swithc, headlight-switch hooked up, only the alarmlight-switch and tacho remain! But first gonna test it all before I'll start working on the tacho electronics.
Also had a nice tax-refund + a bonus at my internship, so probably gonna order my stand-alone motormanagement soon, so that I don't have to make that "investment" anymore in the future

Re: My 6N, Dutch style of course
Well, didn´t do that much on the mk4 lately, but bought me 2 of these

gauges for the airride install, black dialed
and got me a set of 4 brandnew centre/caps for the BBS RS´es on order! Hoping to get me some more RS-parts soon

Re: My 6N, Dutch style of course
Been a while since I've last posted an up-date
But unfortunately I haven't been sitting still, well, I have actually, behind my computer, surfing on gold old Ebay
Scored me a set of polyurethan bushing from Bonrath again, now for the rear-shocks, on the mounts on the chassis. These were the last bushing I needed to convert to polyurethan ones

Also got me some nice tool

Ebay served a set of brand new dishes and hubs for the BBS RS001's

Bling bling

And a complete set of stainless bolts and galvanised nuts

Rohm Motorsport anti-oil-splash plate (or however the f*ck you call that in Brittish
)

My new valve-cover, quite a rare one

15m Festo pneumatic hose for the new airride set-up

And some Golf mk4 cabriolet/convertible sunvisors! Brandnew and in mint condition and of course spanking black to match my black rooflining
