Ah, yes I can't remember why but I don't think it will fit. You could always try and prove us all wrong but I think you'll need either a corrado/ passat or maybe a SEAT setup?

Depends what you want, I've opted to bypass the ballache of hydro and bleeding clutches by getting a SEAT setup. Bolt on bit means you can keep your pedal box, but run hydro box but use a cable actuator. :cool:

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.

from memory u can make them fit but its not that easy as every one else has said go for the corrado /passat/seat

all i done in mine was used a mk3 8v box so all rod change and easy to fit clutch cable and running the lighter 8v flywheel
