Title: will a Vento back box fit on an estate?
Post by: thai-wronghorse on 23 December 2013, 20:22
I remember reading somewhere that this is possible and wondered if anyone here had actually done this in the past?
The reason I ask is that I can get a brand new Vento TDI backbox for about half the price of a Golf TDI estate one!

Just ordered one anyway to accompany the straight through system ive just bagged on eBay. Hopefully its not too loud with just the rear box or the welding torch will be rearing its ugly head. :evil:
