Re: MK2 - Fuel Tank Heat Shield

Thanks so much chap, really appreciate the info there. Out of interest where do you find all your part numbers?
Up until now I've been using a mixture of 7Zap and VW Heritage, but couldn't find the heat shield part number on either of them!

Re: MK2 - Fuel Tank Heat Shield

Sorry chap, was just a photo of my fuel tank for reference. It's one of the 55l tanks from a Scala.
These heat shields seem impossible to find!

MK2 - Fuel Tank Heat Shield

Hi all, Does anyone have a fuel tank heat shield available? Restoring my fuel tank at the moment and the heat shield is knackered! Thanks, Dave https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AP1GczO5870gPZpzJgnx8PvCkJSnWRHMu1bbnoSEtIVOp9-yFS5LLoozBiIuyo_wurbZ19X2L0ekyO1IYE4hDBTVndI8KKeujD_l2r_jSHe3aFHxR82zJer...

New steering knuckles for a 1.8t conversion

Hi all, Looking for some help on buying some replacement steering knuckles for my MK2, as the ones that came with the car were toast. The car is currently an empty shell going through restoration, but the plan is to get a 1.8t in there. My question is, what steering knuckles do I need with this plan...

Re: Anyone used a jig from rolloverjigs.com - Help!

Quick update - mounted on the 4th bolt holes down both sides and she now spins and balances effortlessly. Hopefully this now helps anyone else who gets one of these!

Re: Anyone used a jig from rolloverjigs.com - Help!

Just had these 2 images from Thomas at RolloverJigs from the customer he messaged. 4th bolt hole from the top as mentioned. Will be trying it shortly so will post on here if this works for me too :) https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AJFCJaUJJDkU82x3T33S1iP5poTJSU965RcbdP64Owfe6k3bmezKc9bVI65zn-6C...

Re: Anyone used a jig from rolloverjigs.com - Help!

Just had a text from Thomas at rolloverjigs. He's been an absolute legend trying to help, and reached out to a previous customer with a MK2 to find out how they had it mounted. Customer has told him it's mounted on the 4th hole from the top front and back, and spins perfectly. Waiting for a local me...

Re: Anyone used a jig from rolloverjigs.com - Help!

Yeah, I've been doing some research and it seems a mixed bag of where people are mounting it. I'll experiment with raising it up by a couple of bolt holes and see what happens! https://i.ibb.co/1f2GfDF/Image-005.png https://i.ibb.co/BcTv6TH/5914740e81539.jpg https://i.ibb.co/yqFtF61/Image-001.png ht...

Anyone used a jig from rolloverjigs.com - Help!

Morning all. Has anyone bought a jig from https://www.rolloverjigs.com/, and if so, do you have any photos of the mounting bolt points you used on the front and back? I'm struggling to mount it with the centre of gravity correct, meaning it's not easily turned / can't be put on it's side. Any help m...

Early MK2 Front Wings - Can bodykit be fitted?

Morning all, I bought a pair of replacement front wings for my MK2 Scala, as the originals were rusted beyond use. The pair I've bought are from an early MK2 that didn't come with the bodykit. My question is, can these older wings be modified to fit the bodykit? Were they the same shape, but without...

Uprated Anti Roll Bars?

Afternoon all.
My roll bars are quite heavily corroded / thinning under where the bushes were, so I'm in need of replacements.

Just wondering if anyone had fitted one of these uprated roll bars, and if so, are they any good?
