I've been stripping a GTI that I have to rebuild for a mate, and a disappointing amount of the bolts seem either badly rusty, or possibly incorrect. My local VW dealer doesn't want to know, when I ask about older stuff, and we don't have TPS here. Anyone able to help me with part numbers for the subframe bolts, front wishbone bolts, and crossmember bolts? Pretty please.
Have a looky here: https://realoem.com/ N 10087403 - rear wishbone, M12x1.5x74 - NLA N 10207803 -> N 10207804 - rear wishbone G60/MK3, M12x1.5x78 - 3.48+VAT N 90484003 -> N 90484004 - front wishbone, M12x1.5x82 - 3.68+VAT N 10209605 - outer subframe, M12x1.5x65 - 3.58+VAT
These are all available still afaik Tristan with the exception of the front crossmember bolts . Got a set of the rado a while back.have the receipt somewehere with the pn,s if required. Micheal Moore's parts dept are actually pretty good for older stuff like this I find .
Ah there's loads of good Irish "standard" bolt suppliers, just ideally looking for the OEM flanged head style.
Make sure get the correct grade, lots of stuff is 10.9. If you want OEM style get Geomet coated or similar, basically fancy galvanising they gives that corrosion resistant flat grey look
