Re: Swapping Seats
I don't remember on cabbys but on everything else rabbit jettas etc the seat release (seat slide lever) is on the opposite side of the seat from 83-84 down the lever faces the door 83- 84 up the lever faces the tunnel were your shifter is mounted.

Re: Substitution for auxiliary air valve?
I read somewhere that if you take the valve off spray a bunch of pb blaster or wd40 in there.

any one done this??

Re: Crazy idea #27 -- carpet? We don't need no stinkin' car
A friend ripped the carpet out of his... with the top up, it's annoyingly loud inside the car on the highway. It's so loud that you can't have a normal conversation; instead, you essentially yell at one another, put up with the constant "what'd you say?", or say nothing at all. :beer: dud...

Re: curious what weight oils everyone puts in their bunnies.
My 1989 cabby stock original motor with 320k ish had the low oil pressure problem with the 10/30 I have been running 20/50 for a couple of years now haven't had any issues, lower oil consumption too. I don't really believe there is a right or wrong answer it is what works for you and youre car.

Re: scirocco springs
Also just to clear it up the round headlight vs square isn't always true. All cabbys,early jettas,dashers, roccos and rabbits till about 78 were built in germany.

Re: scirocco springs
I have a friend that has worked at various vw dealerships around the PNW for a long time and he says that cabby springs are actually stiffer than other cars. I didn't believe it at first but a cabriolet is actually heavier than a hardtop car because all the extra metal used to reinforce the strength...
