    Milteks have a lifetime guarantee. They replaced my Mk4 back box recently, no problem. I had to get a copy of the invoice from Awesome (thumbs up to them too), and they just couriered a new one to me.
    Fantastic service.

    well i have heard back and they are saying that is is the oe bit of the bracket that has broke ! the only reason i can see that it has broke is due to the milltek failing . but they have offered to fix/repair it if i drive 191 miles and buy a new bracket :(

    not what i had in mind to be honest
