Simple question for thems what knows, are the front subframe bushes the same across the range (aprt from the 10\12mm hole)? i.e. are the S2 bushes the same as an 80 tdi? I have a set of alloy bushes here for the S2 which I never fitted, the 80 is for mot in 3 weeks and the rear bushes on the front subframe are shot to hell (got an advisory last year). Will the alloy ones go in there?
I'm 90% sure they will fit, as you say depending on the year of the car it will probably have the M12 bolts. Should be easy to visually check before you cut the old ones out..

the 12mm hole was from 92 (pre 91)... there ar 2 differnt rubber; but its the height.. if you use the alu ones, remember the steel and the alu dont like to be together ( ione) use new bolts in...
Turns out they did fit, put them in this morning. Also did the gear linkage oil seal on the gearbox, changed a CV joint and I have a brake hose to replace after lunch.
Once I drive it I'll let you know what I think of the bushes.
