What problem are you having, they are easy to fit really, all the holes are for caster / camber adjustment as required.

think you might have to get a grinder on the lip on the inside of the turrets. Basically you want them to sit flat against the underneath of the turret. Then drill! 3 holes are enough

when you fit them set them at max caster (the camber can be done on the struts) as that was you will have less camber loss as the wheel rises

I found fitting the topmounts to the suspension a ballache as the threaded holes weren't quite concentric. Basically they are never coming off my coilovers again

Thats my old shell, the turrets are in the same place, just flattened!

Jon look for '85 gti in members motors, it will be a few pages back by now, not sure if there are anymore pics though

Apologies.  I thought a bit of THIS had been going on.  Never noticed that mk2's turrets are so much closer to the bonnet than a mk1' s
