ok i'll have a look into them. cheers.

quick question.... My Ignition Coil lead is a 90Degree bend on the coil and a Straight on the Dizzy.

I've noticed on some leads that they are 90Degrees on both ends... Will this fit ok on the dizzy or not??

Cheers.

I got these Beru ones from vwspares recently to go with Beru sparks:-

http://www.vwspares.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=63

Great quality and fit.

My last ones were from ecp (forget which make) and when I was last at an independent VW garage the mechanic he said they were cheap and poor fitting.

Have had good stuff from ecp, just make sure you go for branded stuff

FYI

The part above (ZEF561) is equivalent to the below:

TDC Ignition Leads
Part No.: 409445030

the worst thing about euro car parts are the guys behind the counter, I only go there if I know what I'm ordering looks like so I can check it. My local place has 2 counter men, one is great always helpful and knows what hes doing, but the other one when you order something he looks at the screen like hes never seen it before then comes back with about 5 different parts one of which has around a 50% chance of being what you ordered

if you can when you order parts take the old part in with you so you can check it against the new part

personally I've never had to return anything to them unless it was the wrong part, but after learning my lesson about finding out what it looks like first I've not been back with any problems

Does anyone know if we still get a club discount with Eurocar parts?

I'm after a cat back exhaust system for my Mk3 Golf 8V ADY engine.

cheers
