That's a good read, but never really know how different it will be with a rear ARB until its on YOUR car and with your driving style i guess!

I may be tempted to give it a go anyway... but have had my reservations with strut braces...

Says it fits the Polo 9N, but I'm absolutely certain I read somewhere that it fits the 6N2 as well.

I think it was Mouse_GTi that got one fitted? I have a memory like a fish!

EDIT - Some more info from Jabbasport too...

Yeah I also heard it fits the 6N2 and Ibiza MK3
I think Briskoda are doing a group buy at the moment with Awesome GTI so it would be a good time to get one. Awesome do charge nearly £80 for fitting though :(

Would it really be that hard to fit? I'd rather try myself than pay someone £80 to fit it.

I imagine its just lift the rear of the car up, disconnect the old from the the axle and fit the new one too the axle

Yeah their not that difficult to fit it just makes life easier when the car is on the ramps.
£80.00 fitting is crazy to be fair. My mate bought one recently for his Fabia vRS and I will be helping him fit that next weekend so were hoping its pretty straight forward.
