The standard KR dizzy will foul the standard scirocco brake fliud reservoir. The easiest solution is to get an ABF dizzy cap (the leads come off it at 90 degrees rather than straight) and it will then miss the fluid reservoir

could you just use the leads? Or do you have to use the cap to?

thinking about it, could i use new 100mm (or what size they are) cv joints on my 90 drive shafts?


I just thought i may as well renew the boots when ther off so why not the full joint? :vcool:
