Very EASY, it will be done within 2 hours aslong as you get the plate out of the crash bar ok.
Hammer and good chisel I used, You have to buy/have good metal drill bits too.

Good luck.

The only thing that took the time for me was trimming the bumper. Wasn't a problem for Jamie as he has a Bora :wink:

Haha. Considering you can chnage parts from the golf to bora and vice versa working on the Bora is alot easier than my mates mk4 for some reason.
Funny as the Bora is a Golf just with a boot.
