  1. Thanks for quick reply ,that is what i thought found a website that sells them but does not list them if they fit 4 door or 3 door.Will ring them later today or message them, Thanks.
  2. My front doors Citigo L&R window glass seal is hard and with cracks in it so it does not clear the rain so still leaves rain drops/smears on the window. What i need to know are they same size for a 4 door and a 3 door cannot find any info at all on it.Past experience tells me that 4 door cars have front smaller doors than a 3 door cars. Any info on this matter would be great Thank You.
  3. Thanks for info.
  4. Update:- After doing some searches i have come across a AA solar charger that plugs into the OBD2 socket so i am going to buy that,rather than muck about with fuses/cables etc trying to connect to battery.Plus the fact that the OBD2 socket is under the dash just above to the right of the accelerator pedal next to fuse box it will be easy to fit and remove. Thanks for replies.
  5. So it could be just the smell from washer fluid i will check again tomorrow,i do have the front vents set to windscreen for the fan so will try a different position see if that helps if it changes then it will deffo be vapour.Will check the drainage tomorrow if it is not raining. Thanks.
  6. I used the wiper washer this morning and had a smell of windscreen fluid come into the car more or less straight away,I have looked online at the VW up workshop manual to suss out where the pipes are but only shows me they are attached to the jets on the bonnet.I am not loosing any fluid which makes me think that either the glass is not sealed properly so gets into car between the glass and seal cover or it is getting in somewhere else.The car is a 2017 so i do not think drainage channels would be blocked from the plenum chamber to lower wheel arches.Or is this just vapour from the screenwash and not fluid that is getting in through open vents etc. Any suggestions any one.
  7. Will have a look tomorrow,but now i am thinking if it is only a low currant draw ie solar charger i could connect straight to battery and put in a inline rated fuse with wires following the loom going through the bulkhead' i looked at my owners manual and it gives a list of twelve fuses at one end of dash ,2 are un-asigned.That link is the same as what is in my User manual .
  8. OK will try to be
  9. I have now had the Citigo for about 2 months now and after driving a VW polo 9N for 5 years i am getting use to the quirks of the car,but i got one dislike and that is the wing mirrors,if i have a car etc following me in the inside mirror the distant looks normal so 40 ft behind me does look like 40ft,however if i look in the wing mirror is gives the illusion the car behind is about 100yds behind which for normal roads is ok but on motorways etc i think it is bit of saftey hazzard is there any other 3rd party mirrors eg Halfords i can fit that will give me a more accurate looking distance.
  10. Ok thanks for the info all of you, On the drivers side end of dash there is a small rectangle which looks like it can be taken out held in by clips or is it the whole end of the dash that needs to be removed? i do not want to find that the rectangle plastic part will not fit back in. It is a low current type not sure but i think there is a glass fuse in the plug IIRC it is 2- 3amp. I thought i could piggy back one of the fuses and connect the socket in sight just under the dash but will velcro it there as i think that will be strong enough for the plug to be held in place ,i do not want to screw or glue it in place.Plus i will only need about 20-30 cm of wire.I think that this is the best option.
  11. My 2017 Colour Edition Citigo only has a power socket which is only live when ignition is on and i need to fit a socket which is live to use a solar battery charger plug.Is there a way to connect one eg. from another live nearby wire or can i use the live boot light wire (if it would work) or is it best to use a connection from the fuse box which i would rather not have to do due to not being a contortionist and lower back problem.If the only option is from the fuse box does anybody know which fuse number it is i would have to use.
