Dual Downpipes (from a 1.8 Gti) in a 1.6 n/a Diesel Qestions
I got a really cheap deal on a Techtonic Tuning stainless steel dual downpipe (nran' noo, never installed) and a 1.8 4-2 exhaust manifold. I'm sure a few of you have already done this, so... 1.

Now I gotta find out which belts fit and cross them at the local auto parts store and get the right ones for the gas car till the flat bed comes in February and hauls it off. (YAY) I hate that car.

On the switch there are two terminals #1 and #2
BLACK/red goes on terminal #1 (from fuse box)
BLACK/blue goes on terminal #2 (goes to the reverse lights)
www.brokevw.com discusses the wiring of the reverse light switch
including the earlier "big" switch.
