what polo are you doing the conversion on.if your doing it on a mk3 there are different options you can take.
you will need
1. 22.2 mm master cylinder from a mk 2 gti
2. mk2 golf rear stub axles
3. mk2 gti rear discs
4. you can either choice mk2 gti,mk3 gti or mk4 gti rear calipers and pads according to which option.
5. mk3 handbrake cable and modify it to fit.

Or you could use:-
Mk2 GTI / Mk3 GTI,VR6 / Polo 6N2 rear stub axles
Mk2 GTI / 6N2 polo GTI rear discs
6N2 Polo GTI hand brake cables (as these fit the car perfectly)
MK4,3,2 Golf / Polo GTI Rear calipers (up to you, mk4 best as newer and dont seize)
The the pads to suit calipers you chosen and Rear bearings are the same for any of those discs. You dont need to change the master cylinder but would be better if do, im currently lookin into what ones fit the polo servo.
