Interior - Providing it has standard runners corrado fronts will fit, rears with butchering I think. Mk3 seats won't. Dash depends how far you want to go.
Brakes - What size brakes are currently on it? What model is it - 8v or 16?


Give a few more details and you might get some answers  :rolleyes: Failing that have a search mate, loads of topics on both.

Have a gander through this - might be some help

Mk3 GTI's have 280mm brakes which I'm pretty sure can use the calipers and carriers for your current hubs. I have also heard that 256 calipers will fit over 280 discs but you'll need to grind down the sliders a little. I'm sure someone on here could clarify that.
