Title: stumpy bee sting...
Post by: kniterider on 20 October 2004, 14:02
just scanning ebay (as i have most of the day!!) and come across these stumpy alloy besting ariels, there all advertised for mk4 golfs/beetles etc, do they fit the sting on my 16v also?? i wouldnt normally ask this as id go and try and swap between my mk2 and my mk4, but its raining and wifey has took the mk4 to work........

dont wanna spend anymore on the 16v as its for sale but reckon they look cool...

i too have seen some 'chav' type ones about, but these ones on ebay were plain alloy for the mk4 etc, just wondering if theyd fit the mk2 as it was raining and couldnt be @rsed to check!! lol

I bought mine from halfords. just a plain alloy bee sting. Comes with three shafts so you can alter the length. looks pretty good and is holding up well.
