[Sam]

I think... now dont quote me on this but that the one you have bought is a g60 arch

[Adam]

Looks like a standard GTi Trim. The part codes for the G60 trims end in "D".

those are 90spec GTI arches, not G60. 191853718c is right hand front, 191853717c is left hand front

well ....  its a rear arch ... lol  didnt realise till i was looking at it wondering why it wouldnt fit ...   :@  i drove all the way up to northampton services  having asked the bloke for the drivers side front arch and he sold me a rear ...  it was dark and cold when i met him at the services and i was in a different car lol
