I think the only ones with abs are the rallye's and some G60's

no UK mk2 golfs came with ABS. only import G60/Rallye's have it.

follow the wiring from an ABS sensor that will lead you to the controller

and I don't know where ABS computer should be to install

There were UK MK2s fitted with ABS, a stupidly low number mind!  No idea where the ABS ECU would go though, I'm assuming somewhere near the ECU/TCI unit on the driver side

It sits near or under the boot catch mate.   Had a look at my mates G60 which is original as they come. :nerd:

i think the designers put it there to prevent damage in the event of a front end smash. you would never need ABS when reversing. lol  :laugh:
