Re: Blue S3 Breaking - Lancashire, UK
I've made headway this week. Does anyone have tips in removing the rear side windows? They're bonded on pretty well.
Parts available:
- Shell
- Rear hatch glass
- Rear wiper motor (tested but no interior cover)
- Gearbox
- 4x S3 wheels:

- Rear windows (if I can get them out!)

I'll be doing another round of work on my car in August so more parts should become available then.

Try fishing trace wire on the rear quarterlights, or cut away at the top and bend the glass away cutting the sealant as you do. It's pretty strong stuff mind. Obviously undo the fixings first and try not to break the little triangle covers, prise them off gently.

Re: Blue S3 Breaking - Lancashire, UK
if the grey dash top is in good condition and split free I'd be interested in buying it if it's going to be available... likewise the internal windscreen pillar trims

Dash top is blue. I'll post pics tomorrow of the dash and trim.

Re: Blue S3 Breaking - Lancashire, UK
I've love some of those interior bits but too big to ship to Australia I'd imagine.
If you are willing to ship much smaller bits overseas (small parcels to Australia are quite cheap), I'd be interested in:
- the oval screw plugs that go into the screw hole recesses in the rear trim
- the square and parallelogram plugs that go into the door trims
- gear knob, as shown here: http://rx7fb.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=3424
- gear knob boot, as shown here: http://www.ausrotary.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=248409

Re: Blue S3 Breaking - Lancashire, UK
Hi there, what's the sunroof like? Also potentially interested in front wings and OSR tail light if they're in good nick!
Cheers

Re: Blue S3 Breaking - Lancashire, UK
Sunroof is unsaveable. I'm keeping the wings for now but I'll update if anything becomes available.
OSR light is in good condition. Can you send me a PM with location and I'll give you a price plus shipping.
Cheers,
Patrick
