Excuse the back of the workhorse, another purchase to go with the rs3 bumper I got made that seem like years ago now, upgrading the ecu to an s3 CDL so the valve positions can be mapped. (The electronic valves will need to be cut out and replaced with vacuum ones though)

Some work involved there mate, do the sides also need pulled apart to add strengthening for the struts?

Yeah there is, it’s above my pay grade lol Ryan at Chesham garage is sorting for me, he’s done a few now top bloke too, you need to weld in reinforced plates with threaded bar to take the ball studs as the side parts aren’t available from VW
