6N - Fitting a post 1998 Engine Cover

Polo 6N: Fitting a post - 1998 Engine Cover

Works on 6N cars with MPI - those with SPI can use this too, but they'll need additional customizing of the cover to allow for the accelerator cable.

Most Pre-1997 cars came without an engine cover, leaving all wiring and metal exposed. To clean this up a bit, I fitted the 1998 and onwards engine cover.

Yeah it's not that hard, I'd say it rates as 'low' on the Guru Level Scale. Quite fulfilling mod though!

:D

I'd imagine you could fit a mk4 cover, as they're pretty much the same engine (the smaller engines, that is..). Probably need some modification though..
