Hi all, I bought these plates and I can't get them to fit to my MK2,I fitted a set of these on my golg I owned about 5 years back and I can't remember the clip on the back, thought they were more or less flat, Will these fot a MK2 or have I bought a pair for a MK3? Here is the pic:
Can these be modified for the MK2? the bracket looks like it can be removed, is this all the difference?
Doesnt look like it, I'd send em back and get the propper ones, or do you know some one with a MK3? Get em to order a MK2 set and swap
I know the feeling, won a LHD R32 accelerator pedal, turnedout to be a RHD one , though sod it, it was only 7.
I am sure I read on some forum that these could be removed and used on a MK2 Anyone got any info on this?
If I can't find a way to fit them you can have them for sure! but the bit does look like it comes out, need a pic of a normal one for a mk2, anyone got one front and back pics please?
Nope, these are Armour Door Plates (ADPs), ADPs prevent someone jamming a screw driver under the handle gasket to trip the lock mech, whereas anti Slim jim plates prevent some one sliding a slim jim between the glass and the door to trip the lock mech. I did a post showing how to fit anti slim jim plates. Clicky Edited by: GTD.
I think on the mk1 the rear ones are deeper than the front ones, not sure about the mk2 but hope it sheads more light onto it.
The MK1 and MK2 ADP are a very different internal design, they won't fit (or be modified to fit) your MK2. Sorry. Lhasa2008 MK1 with ADP MK2 with ADP Girlfriends MK3 with ADP
Get a remote for your central locking, replace the front handles with back door items (no locks), Remove all the gubins that connect the lock barrel to the lock mechanism and also the door pins and there you go no need to have nasty looking plates round your door handles. If the battery ever goes flat just get in through the boot. If you want extra security just fit an anti slim jim plate. I made my own.
