i gave myself 3days to get everything swapped over and it running. I didnt think it would be in on the 1st day. I had a mate with me aswell but it diddnt take kong between us. Electrics were a ball ache though. But eventually I got everything working.
You can do em in a weekend when uve done a few though.

I totally don't, not at the moment anyway. 312's will be fairly hefty on such a light car but having them can't hurt. Do Porsche rear calipers not fit, with a bit of fiddling as a cheaper way to get shiny red brembo's on the front of your golf.

If you need adapters made up. Take some measurements and get some details to me and will see what I can do. :wink:
