Hi,
Has anyone got an offside wishbone kicking about?
It has to be for a GTi.
I need one ASAP please.
Thank you,

Has to be for a gti? Why? You should just ask for 16 or 18mm

If you have got a non pas one, you will have positive camber. Have fun with that.

You need to measure the balljoints, if yours turns out to be 18mm and you put in a 16mm - you are f*cked. Hopefully you find something buddy! Xx

The wishbones are all the same. The difference between non pas and pas ball joints is the length of the plate. The pas plate is longer for more camber.

Same left and right? After ball joints are removed?
It's quick to measure ball joint size by slipping a spanner over them, no need for verniers.
No not from side to side. I meant across all models of 306.
