Possibly not, but I don't have one very close to me unfortunately

SEAT, Audi or Skoda?

That's true,  does anybody know the part number?

Bolt part number N 104 176 01 (M10 x 50mm)
Nut part number  N 102 613 02

Cool mate thank you

[Reebzluke]

So I used a prybar while undoing to bolt and finally got it out.... it was bent and thread gone in places. I cable tied the drop link to the roll bar, stuck the wheel back on and went for a drive.  Silent... not a single knock rattle or anything.

Hoping the thread is ok on the wishbone so I can just get a new bolt

That's a recipe for disaster 

[Reebzluke]

Why is it a recipe for disaster?

A cable tie

It's only to hold the drop link out of the way. It's not to connect it or hold it on or anything.

I'm sure Vw fitted the drop link for a reason but you think it's ok to drive your car without it even attached
