I have an Ibiza 16v centre section on mine, bought a cat back sytem from a friend of a friend thinking it would be a straight swap, but it turns out its closer to a mk2 floor pan on the ibiza, but an hour of fettling choping & welding & its fitted up nice, altho i didnt bother with the letterbox style back box i just stuck with my OEM twin pipe... can be done its just a bit of hassle, depends if the price is right if its worth poncing around I paid £30 so imo as my cntre box was screwed i thort it was worth it
