            • Must admit I am still undecided, I have heard good reports about k-seal but need to do a bit more research before I try it.

                ebay has Worley ones for 165.
                Seems reasonable to me.

                  This list would be helpful to me, especially as I'm new to the older mk3.

                  How bout I take a couple of guesses and you guys can correct me if I'm wrong.

                  1. Front seats
                  2. Wheels
                  3. Gti brakes
                  4. Auto gearboxes?

                    just had a look on ebay and there's quite a few which sell Worley ones but not sure which seller would be best, any suggestions?

                    they all just seem to have the same info copy pasted from each other...

                    • I tend to check the seller's reputation - higher the percentage of positives the better and also check out the actual negative feedback comments to see what problems other customers have had. Then go for lowest price + postage.

                        1. Underneath centre rail needs to be modified and rear guide wheels trimmed.
                        See vortex.
                        2. 5x100 wheels fit, rear wheels may need the dust cap removed if you want centre caps on.

                          • How important is the plastic dust cap that sits between the distributor and the rotor cap.....mine was really brittle and I ended up breaking it while trying to get the annoying stuck on rotor arm off!

                            I have no idea where I would find a replacement or if it is even possible, hopefully I can get by without it but it was obviously there for a reasons, any ideas?
