Post by: rowleyslims on 16 July 2010, 15:22

would this be a waist of money or is it a quality part?

DAMMMMM THING DIDNT FIT.. way too small. how can i know im getting the right part. it says its made for a 1992 golf gti (gl) whatever you wanna call it. says its made for an 8v but it just bigger than half the size of my radiator thats already installed...
