S3/R32 Splash Guards - How to adapt for GTI?
RedRobin:
.
For rear brakes but I guess the answer would apply to fronts as well.
THX to JPC for selling me the splash/stone guards and packaging them to look like pizza's with a bite taken out! And sexy black bubble wrap - Never seen it in black before.
IIRC there's a 'trick' necessary to adapt them to fit the Mk5 GTI when with S3 rear brakes. Can someone please confirm and, if so, try to describe what the adaptation is?
I can photograph and post pics of my guards if it helps.
Thanks :drinking:

RR,
Are they for the rears? If so I don't think they will fit. Send me your Chassis number and I take a butchers on Etka and find which guards will fit.

^^^^
I'd best PM my chassis #.
The guards Jay sold me are 1K0 615 612 S and 611 S and dated 30/07.

My Etka chassis number converter is playing up. I will try again later.

RR, you need S3 alloy hubs for them to fit, stokey is your man for these parts. if you buy them you need all the bolts to fit them as well, 7 pieces methinks :wink: :drinking:
fronts fits on your existing heavy iron hubs, but will of course fit the light and steering lightened S3 alloy front hubs :P
