    I feel your pain!...honest!...I could sell almost 20 of these at the mo if I had them...I think the wires got crossed between my fabricator and the metal folders...they sent 4!

    I'm currently awaiting a reply from someone who wanted one with other items but isn't parting with the folding...if I don't get a positive reply today it yours as your next up anyway...failing that there are more coming very soon...im twisting the nipple clamps on my people very hard honest...maybe that's the problem...they do seem to smile alot when i pop in!

    Hey bud I'm good thanks!...you?

    Don't ask!....I've lost count how often I've chased them. There is allegedly a few coming next week but they wont fulfill all the back orders. There is a new batch being processed but wont be for a couple more weeks.

    Are these suitable for 02a gearbox applications on Mk1/Scirocco platforms too!?

    I want to say no because O2A in A1 chassis requires custom mounts and these are OE replacements. But it wouldn't surprise me if I'm wrong.

    I have a customer that's using them a 2.0T conversion with either an 02A or J box....he said the fronts will fit no problem and the rear adapter bracket he has is to take a std type MK1 mount, so our rear mount will fit, poss with a spacer....I'll get some more details off him.

    Anyone I havn't caught up with from the ones I've had trickle through I'd grab them while you can!....though there is a much larger quantity now available...I'll pop a pic up when they land.

    I can confirm that the these type of mounts will transfer between an 020 box that I started with and the 02J I now have with no issues,HOWEVER a small spacer plate is required for the rear mount,hope that helps eases a few minds!

    Thanks for that bud.

    I guess the spacer is needed between our 'u' bracket (that the main floor mount fits into) and the conversion bracket (or some I've seen) for the 02J?

    If all the 02J conversion brackets are the same then I'll get some spacers made for those wanting to use an 02J box with our rear mount.
