I use Mintex, good performance and value for money.

Very true.
Their standard replacement stuff isn't bad, 1144s very good and 1155s superb.

I can say without a doubt they should be 288mm ones mate. Do not get the 280mm ones, they were on the earlier MK3s.

according to my vw bible.. if it has oval side repeaters its 100% 288mm and squares mean 280mm


oh and i guess some places list 280mm to 1993 as that's when the vr6 stopped using that size
