    I did see some guy selling reinforced brass replica's for around £30 on the bay. But couldn't even begin to justify £30 for it... not until I've exhausted other options.
    I drilled mine out with a dremmel and tiny drill bit, then used a drop back alarm from my carp fishing gear and glued it in, still works nearly 2 years later [emoji106]


    Sell my T4 !!! I'd rather stick wasps up my butt.

        Used to, not anymore tho, I sold it all as I got pissed off with the cost from greedy lake owners, bought my mk2 golf with the money [emoji16]

          That is almost exactly what I was planning on (hadn't considered fishing parts - i was thinking round-head bolt!) is that just superglue?

            Yea mate, drilled down till it was the right height, filled it with superglue, stuck the replacement in and left it for a few hours before refitting it [emoji106]

                  Yep all my mates still go I just lost intrest, they keep charging more money but, the fisheries don't get any better, same old stock, same old shit swims etc the only thing that changes is the price, my golf is much more fun than sitting there piss bored !

                  Sorry for going off topic people [emoji16]

                    Forgive me, I'm not a fisherman of any sort... What am I looking at? And where would I find one? Haha

                        Took the plastics off earlier, the centre mount is broke but the rest is intact. Still usable.

                                After a long weekend away in the big smoke, had a quick nose around the heater control again just to see whether I could change the temp just using the cable. Strangely, even changing the position manually under the bonnet it still stays hot...

                                Any thoughts? Sensor perhaps?
