GTI shocks and springs on a GL?

[Shady Pioneer]

Will it work? Being offered shocks and springs that'll lower the car by 20mm, which is what I want to make the car standard GTI height (plus won't need to tell the insurers because it's not as if anyone will really notice lol).

I think it's a different set as opposed to the standard GTI set up, that being the case, will I be able to just whack them on mine?

They are indeed the GTI VW standard shocks and springs...will this work?

Don't see why not, although don't expect a dramatic improvment in handling as the GTI suspension was never up to much.

What year was the car this suspension has come off as you'll need it of a post 95 car as pigtail sizes changed.

It's the same year as mine. I don't really care for handling, if it's the same as mine atm I won't notice any different. lol! I just want it a little lower so it's not so high, and standard GTI height seems about right and stops police checking me out on insurance (no point in telling insurers really).

they will fit strait on   and you will notice a big diffrence in handling compaird to gl shocks     sorry about spelling bit tired 

[Shady Pioneer]

Is that a definate yes? I take it it is lol!

Danke shon

BTW, the springs and shocks are coming from a car that has done 55K so they should be good to use yeah?

Should be fine and will be correct fitment if its the same year mate 

[dubmad]
