I remember taking it out as I snapped the nut holding it
Just can't figure out which way it fits back in

My apologies, that is spot on. I used it to mount the mk3 ecu in mine. Hence confusion :whistle:

How did you mount mk3 one in? My ecu is just laid there at an angle with no bracket
because none of it fit in

 I attached TCi unit to the ECU and iirc I used speed fixing dipped in sealant and the mk3 ecu mounted in the normal way.

But the abf ecu much bigger than standard pb one. I threw away the bracket because there was no way it going to fit. Mine just there at at angle but not secured.

Ive ended up getting the cutting disc out and cut most of the left hand side off the cage , its not perfect but it will do for now
