Title: Dsg specific coilovers
Post by: edd666999 on April 19, 2010, 03:58:40 am: When looking at coilovers on the AP website they have a different set of coilovers for gti dsg and gti manual...

does anyone know the difference between the two kits?

What make are these coilovers, J? If they're Bilstein you may have a buyer...
