Guys reshelling my car,

 

My car is a 1989 manual tt, and the shell ive bought is a 1995 auto tt,

 

Few bits im stuck with and not use to where they have changed things on the newer models.

 

im doing an na rear end conversion, new car has electric hicas.

 

It looks like the computer is in the boot, on the older car it was in the passanger footwell, u can unplug one connector on the hicas computer and it would loose the hicas light and keep your speed assisted steering.

How would i go about it on the newer car, shall i just take the bulb out lol.

 

I want to change the loom which goes right around the front of car for a manual loom so my manual gearbox plugs in without having to play with the wiring.

will the older cars loom connect to the newer cars loom without problems.

 

Its got the newer heater aircon but computer to control it all is missing can i use my older computer to control it.

 

Anyone know any other bits i may run into trouble with between the 2 cars,

Im trying to use the best bits from each car and has im going through im noticing differences all the time lol.

 

Anyone know of all the differences between models.

 

any help appreciated,

 

Thank u.

Clocks are different : surface mount components, different plugs, diferent shape dials , no boost gauge etc

Ecu is different

Manual air control uses completely different motors and ecu

Vvt no longer fitted

Airbag in steering wheel therefore airbag light on dash

Hicas as you said

Electric passenger seat

Cornering lights

Oh and my 95 doesnt have a fuel temp sensor so fitting an older ecu kicked up an error

Just looked and i think the car is 1994 lol, its an m registration.

 

Ianl thanks for reply, much appreciated..

Ahh the 99 spec heater control as I call it, Jaikai is your man for this as he's already done it and I know is itching to do another as he enjoyed it so much as he did it with hardly any complications :tt2:.
