Don't forget if its a bigger ARB, you will need different ARB mounts.
Niall when you say this do you literally mean the rubber mounts or the sort of D shaped metal that clamps it? . . . . reason i ask is that i've got a GTI6 front ARB to go on the Dtub complete with the rubber mounts, this will fit in fine without anything else i'm hoping . .
The rubber mounts mate. The 'D' brackets are the same throughout the models i believe but the rubbers have a bigger centre bore to take the bigger ARB. As i said mate, they are only about £10 from ECP but double check you get the right size. When i did the ones on my 1.8, i got given 18mm ones which came up under my reg even though it had GTI suspension from the factory. In the end, i just got them to search manually for them
cheers, i've heard different things from different people but i'm sure you're right . .
