As the title says really. Can anyone tell me what size the rear beam bushes are? Diameter, length etc. Im going to go for Powerflex ones for abit more durability with my car being lowered and used as much as it is and after being advised to if I can get them. Only reason Im asking is...

Hope someone can help with this. It had been snowing last night so I cleared my car and I started it while I was clearing it. I went back into the house and got my stuff together and came out and noticed my number plates lights were on, but I didnt have my side or headlights on. :confused...

This is abit of a strange one and im just after a heads up etc about it. I dont know if I am being paranoid but my mk2 seems to be using oil a fair bit. Had it topped up about 1 or 2 months ago and its down to half way on the dipstick again. Fair enough I am using the car everyday (roughly...

Where is the tacho reading taken from on the mk2?? I have fitted my rev counter in today and tried connecting it to the wire that goes to the clocks that gives the reading, but doesnt make the gauge move so Im guessing the signal isnt strong enough. Ive had a search on here and Ive read...

Hope someone can help me with my prediciment. Two/three weeks ago my car was in the bodyshop getting some rust fixed and I also had my roof painted in grey. Well today a bird has decided to leave me a 'present' on the roof. I cleaned it off using an Autoglym bird dropping wipe being gentle...

Has anyone had any experience with the above?? I have saw them advertised in Venom Motorsport adverts and Im tempted so I can run alittle more camber on the front, but keeping it sensible for daily use, so I can lower the front alittle more without any rubbing. Thanks all. Craig.

Has anyone successfully fitted a boot popper onto the mk2 Ibiza using the standard lock/mechanism? I have an idea and I am really thinking of going ahead with it, plus I can add a boot popper onto my Hawk aftermarket remote locking kit which I want to do. I havent yet had the chance to...

Will the interior mirrors from any later model Ibiza's etc fir the mk2 original fitting?? I quite fancy a change of mirror to something a little bit more sleeker. Thanks, Craig.

Is there any other scuttle trays/panels that fit on the mk2?? I have just fitted a Storm wiper kit and the metal spring part is rubbing on it. I tried bending it alittle but it didnt make any difference, but when you lift the arm the metal spring bit bends the perfect shape inside the...

How do the side-skirts and end caps fit together?? I am planning on 'finally' getting my sideskirts onto the car in the next week or so but I cant figure out how they 2 connect/clip together. I am planning on using alot of tigerseal to hold the skirts onto the car and onto the end cap...

This could be a long shot on the forum as there are only 2/3 people who have one fitted but its worth a shot. Im after some help regarding the fitting of it to the original wiper mechanism as the instructions arent that clear. . Am i right that the 2 parts I have marked to are the motor...

Pretty much as the title really. Need to change the discs and pads shortly and just wondered how easy it was to do. I know how to use a spanner etc and really want to try it myself, Im just after a heads up for anything that I should watch out for etc. Cheers, Craig.

Well the thread title isnt probably 100% accurate as there isnt really an issue, Im just not happy with it. More precisely I am not happy with the like the handling of it. Best way to describe it is that it isnt balanced somehow. Even when going in a straight line it sometimes doesnt feel...

Just a quick one, already had a search but couldnt find a 'definitive' answer. Would a Mk4 Polo centre exhaust section fit on the mk2 without any problems?? From my search the Polo backbox does but couldnt find anything regarding the centre section. Cheers, Craig.

As some of you know from either the 'Show off your Mk2 Ibiza' thread or my 'Readers Ride' thread I have recently fitted a black/red interior into my mk2. My doorcards are still the same pattern from my old seats and I want to change them to match my seats, so what would be the best way to do...

Been having problems with my handbrake cable. It was making a rubbing sound and it turns out it had popped out of the clip/where it should be attached. Had it fixed a few times and the last was during my service 2 weeks ago and it lasted until last Thursday when it started again. When I...
