Bruh use ze tips to suit ze wire. .6mm wire .6mm tips etc etc. otherwise you'll get the wire wandering like your eyes when a girly takes off her top.

Yeassss so that can work ?! Sweet ill have to source a setup that I can modify

I do know they are fussy as f. Hence why something from a Hiace or similar maybe used. Still researching though.

Relocating the whole assembly in to the inside might be do able? The original linkage pushes forward but if i could somehow spin it around i may be able to mount the booster reversed or at 90 degrees.

One reason to keep the boosted brakes is that it'll be a daily and my partner will need boosted as she's week as f .I was going to attempt to find something stock from another Vehicle and either rebuild or copy it. Since I'm young and own vws, I'm not liked among the cert guys in Hamilton lol. But will draw something up and at least get it looked at first. Will be researching "remote ones" which I have never seen so To google I go. Cheers boys

Looking into possible brake servo relocation as mine has a great big ugly linkage system in the bay.

And want to make this. 

Mounted under my dash.

Question is though, the legality of having the booster,master cylinder and lines starting inside the car?

I want to keep boosted brakes and want to keep somewhat OEM parts (m/c booster etc) mainly for maintenance.

Shoot the idea down or shove me in the right direction.

I can make all the linkages at work so no stress on fab work.

Chhhhhhheeeeeeerrrrssss

Some after shots.

Quite drastic really.

Been super busy at Midnight Upholstery, both on my car and not hahah.

First time gluing carpet, learnt heaps and getting the hang of it pretty quick.

Some Before photos

Used the missus's potato to take some photos of the progress. Finally got her to help with something.

Clean the seals, woman!

Armour-all the seals ,woman!

Got some fiddly crap done today,

Wing mirrors on, Front door seals, window  scrapers, rear boot thingy re trimmed, seat belts fitted,rear side panels cleaned and installed.

But mainly sorting through 3 cars worth of 30 year old stuff took up most of my day.

Again sorry for the potato photography, its not my strong point.

Gold one is sold He is an OS member i think? But don't know his username?

Almost like you bought yours from a wrecker!

Dont remind me lol

Canty part

Pretty sure Im the only one here who has troubles with the damn photo uploads lol. Must be this shitty chromebook i use.

Anyway i did some more trim today, had a potential buyer have a gander at it tonight. I know hes lurking on here somewhere.

Did the rear prick of a shape panels, some lower bits that you cant see and some covers for behind the seats.

Some before and after shots.

And trying to get this done by the end of the month maybe

i mainly just wanted to see some one struggle at what i do for a living to make myself feel better really....

but sweet. bring your cabby to the OS meet at the end of the month we are off to raglan for a cruise to eat fush and chups. see you tomorrow.

One day Ill get you to write out a basic two hole drilling program to make myself feel better hahaha. 

Off to Gregs, at Midnight Upholstery it goes.

First go at retrimming a car, just laying underlay and reinstalling carpet, glueing some new pillar trim on is something new for me hahah.

Had a good mate from the Mad Signtists helping me out. He cuts alot straighter than I do hahahah.

Once sorting through all the crap I still couldnt find the windscreen. Lucky I have two spares in the other two cars.

Cleaning window seals and windows is a highly satisfying job.

2nd day we had it, we filled it with some fresh oil,since it was bone dry.

new fuel and vroom.

Will be giving it a new filter and oil as Im unsure what its condition is.

So far only thing for a warrant is front right outer cv boot is fooked.

Emptied the red car out and found some goooooodieeeees.

Sadly the red gti is far gone, much like the green one so both will be heading to the scrap after I rape them of their parts.

what a dick. thought you where going to sleep ow. get back here and do some more upholstery.

I thought youd appreciate a OS post since i do shit all of them.

I dont work as hard as you, remember that i just push buttons and pull levers for a job,
