Cheers Steveo,
What if i put Mk2 golf hubs, dics, calipers...etc. Will it fit then??
The only difference we can see is the hole on the top mount is bigger on the Golf to the Polo..
Any help will be greatfully appreciated.

Mk2 golf suspension will not fit. As far as i know coupe and breadvan suspension is the same. The only real differnce is less arch clearance for bigger wheels on a breadvan.
