    Sort of, you need Corrado or Passat G60 discs to make it plug and play, also I seem to remember the discs need to be turned down too 276 from 280 mm.

    I'm fitting some to my MK II 16V, that will not be plug and play as I want them under 14" rims. It can be done

        Will let you know, I'm using ET 33 14" RM's which helps with clearance. Going to mean using custom Brackets and turned down disc's though.

          Ok nice one. Probably won't do it if they can't fit under my scalas... shame to have the big brakes sitting doing nothing though!

            what about the bolt spacing on the caliper brackets? AFAIK it's different, smaller on the Golfs.

              You may have a point there regarding the MK I Golf, I've got all sorts of callipers and carriers sat my shelf's, I'll take some measurements over weekend and report back.
