scuse the ignorance - bit lost, what car are you trying to fit side skirts to. Can't imagine any mk6 would have a different floor pan to any other. Would VW not plan ahead to cover all options? Different floor pans would be an expensive process to change on the assembly process.

The Cab will have a different floor pan as it needs to be strengthened to make up for not having an integral roof. This is why Cab's usually weigh more as well.

Ah, the cabriolet -got it
As for glueing - well I replaced the GTi skirts with the R ones, and was assured that the mounting pins were the same. Turns out they are not - panel shop could care less, they did not let me know so I could get the relevant pins, so they just stuck them on with the provided double sided tape. So far, they're still on...
