Hi,

I'm restoring a 1983 Rabbit GTi and I'm looking for information about OEM factory warning and instruction stickers around the car. My car has been painted before and all stickers have not survived, so I don't know what should be and where..

I have following stcikers at my knowledge:
- paint code in front of radiator (LE9C Cashmere white)
- red warning sticker in radiator housing (in english and in french)
- vacuum hose diagramm under bonnet
- yellow warning sticker for back seat on the the rear lid frame
- VIN-sticker under the trunk mat (vin, paint code, interior)

What is missing?
- tyre pressure?
- emissions?
- catalyst sticker?
- what else?

What stickers there are and where are they accurately located? Are these stickers available somewhere as a repro or original? I know MeisterWerks, but they don't seem to have all...

Thank you very much for any information!

JK

Unfortunately Meisterwerks is pretty much the only place to get those Mk1 stickers as far as I know. Stickers are pretty much confined to the engine bay and the driver's side door jam. There is the ring sticker around the fuel filler which can easily be picked up on ebay or at Mk1 autohaus.

Thanks for the tip.

Can anyone specify what kind of stickers there should be? Meisterwerks has several types, but what is needed in 1983 original GTi? What stickers are found on drivers door jam?

Has anyone original condition Rabbit and/or possibly pics about specific decals and positions?

I have an original untouched '83 I can get you the info for. Send me a PM and I can email exactly what you're asking for.
