    God they are beautiful wheels!:clap:

    BUT:

    They really, really, really, really, should be on an Apline White 1987 EV Basic.[:x]

    ps. Looks a tad low for an 8V?:o

    Well maybe one day I'll be able to have 2 golfs and one could possibly be white;)
    I know it's a bit low but I'm still waiting on funds for suspension[:^(]

    If we are going for the 'Big Bosch Knick' thingy, on the front, then stick to single.:thumbup:

    All you will have to remember is to mount the Knicks anytime that you are likely to be out after dark.:lol:

    Otherwise, fit a twin (dual) headlight grill. Then you can see better where you are going when it gets dark!;)

    If you are lucky, you might find some pukka 37.5 lumens spots to replace the standard 17.5 limens units. I have found one, but can't find a second, as yet![:x]

    Thanks Mike.:thumbup:

    I actually assumed they might not really exist, for these cars, and have not even checked ETKA![:$]

    Lee. The one Mike H is talking about is for the Audi!

    The one SMP is selling is a 1H0 857 231 A Golf Mk3 Item. That is the one that came with the EV, but it is not a perfect fit in my dash!

    I can't work out what is the correct part for a 1986/7 dash, as the first time a cover appears is on the 1991 ETKA Drawings.

    191 857 231 B

    I would like one of those to try though!

    Well I'm think I'm going to invest in some silicon hose for my car as the new ones I got from gfs are starting to crack and ones already leaking

    any mk2 blank would fit there, as the panel is the same shape for all years. looking at it the earlier cars didnt get the option of a blank panel instead they got a storage box 191 857 233 LN9
