You may experience clearance issues with bonnet. Some come as Scirocco specific fitment and of course carbed/injected cars are different too.
Brace manufacturer will be able to advise for sure if known?

I agree, I have tried a couple of braces for MK1 Golfs on my Mk2 Rocco and had issues. Mainly causes bonnet closure issues.... I am on the lookout for a front upper (pref aluminium). If i find any I will post.

Hi Thank you for the reply.
I am looking for a brace to go at bottom of the wish bones.

Hi James,

You met me, Phil (fat one) and Antony (Welsh one) down the farm.

I will PM our numbers to you.

Don't think Ant would mind me saying that he will probably be down the farm the next two days, and would probably be pleased to have a distraction from swapping gearboxes if you fancied a trip over.
