on a similar sort of note, rear upper strut braces...

Where do they go? Inside boot?
And how useful are they?

They go on the rear strut tops in the boot they don't do anything really for a strut brace to have much affect it would need to be welded.. They look nice which is good and they work a little..

Fitting a rear ARB  has to be one of the best things ive ever done to the car.. Its already been said but sounds like the people in your local place dont know what there on about.

To give the guy his dues, his loyalties lye with RWD cars :grin: his toy is a 400bhp mr2 turbo that he built him self (been a spin in it and can be best described as chaotic :grin:) and he has built a fair few bmw e30's with big 6 cylinder engines. he does know his stuff hes just not fond of FWD ,haha.

okay then so what ARBs are the best to go for? eibach, h&r ????

As mentioned the Whiteline bars are a very good choice for the Golf 4.
