Stunning thread ... I have a spare part in the garage which is a different kind of gear stick mount design which might be useful for a track orientated car with so many upgrades. It is a very direct engagement for the gear selection. I will try dig it out over the weekend. |

Yes page 55 ....post 1358-1360 Michael Only difference is they are hard-shell Marguard = scratch resistant polycarb m8 ...1/4 as much again sadly plus fitted scoops to get more air in when the windows are open .......plus putting more bolts to pull them in tight / fix them flat all round with no lifting anywhere seemed to strengthen the door surround ?....OTT I know plus added a little weight but remember they are Kevlar/ Carbon composite Doors so anything that strengthens them slightly helps ...Tony Palfrey Carbon fitted door panels made a difference...weird but 100% truth ...the Doors didn’t flex hardly before Fitting these bits but helped 25% I recon |

Can I just congratulate you and DD Dan for 2 of the most educational threads I have read on this forum? As a newbie to 306 GTI-6's, and trying to race one, the pictures and advice from various people have been so useful. They should be saved as part of FAQ's once completed so the rest of us can refer to them in times of need ! Well done to both of you. I now need to rob a bank to get some of these fancy bits !! ________________________________________ Adventure before Dementia !! |

No mate, I mean't the inner cv joint on the driveshafts. It's called a tripod joint/bearing I believe. And i also think they're NLA which is why I was asking. Cheers |
