Thanks, Jonesy

i mounted them on to original 1s, its not worth paying 90quid for touran 1s cos ul sit higher up and for the steering wheel it just fits straight on

Thanks for your help, Dan.

Thanks, Dan. What do you reckon chances are of drilling pilot holes through GTi/R32 runners to line up with Caddy subframe and therefore still use Caddy mounting points?
