Got it in 1. Had a hydraulic handbrake on the old white one, with the GTI6 disc beam. Shockingly crap, even with the hydraulic. estate beam, has the bigger drums than the hatch on the back. Its a good handbrake on the cable, but with the hydraulic its properly good now. However... the downside, as you've probably gathered is that using such a good handbrake at speed, is killing the beam mounts! I've snapped two brand new sets of mounts in less that a day
