Great write up! Where can I find a list of all the parts/part numbers needed?

I’ve got it all saved in my AUTODOC and eBay past purchases. The only tricky bit was working out the longer bolts for the alloy hubs.. it wasn’t too tricky though and the guys at my local tps in Dundee were really helpful.
If there is anything you need to know the part number for let me know.

I managed to get the hard brake lines all made up and installed today. The rears were a doddle, the front drivers side was a massive PITA. I managed eventually though, it routes right along the ‘firewall’ / back of the engine bay, you have to remove a whole bunch of stuff if you want to keep to the original routing.
If you start at my red pipe cutter on the right of this photo and follow the copper coloured line.. you’ll see what I mean.
Anyway, managed to make them all up and finished fitting the braded lines to my refurbed calipers.
Didn’t get around to bleeding them.. but I’m guessing I’ll need to get the car running and use VAG com to activate the ABS to bleed them??
If so I might try and get the interior put back in next.

Finally got the car off the pits! Going to try and remember how the interior goes together later this week 🤪

Great thread! :happy2: Glad you said it took you a year. When you post up the photos together it looks like it was last weekend's project.
