It will only fit a hydrolastic Mk1 as dry cars dont have the big hole. Obviously you would need mounts from subframe to floor and teardrops from subframe to front panel which MK1s dont have.
I seriously doubt it! |

isnt the mk1 bulkhead hollow where the big hole is so itd have to be strengthened with a tube or something to stop it squashing. no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

yeah, i was looking at it on my twin bolt shell and it'd need sleeving to stop it squashing. On 20th Oct, 2015 Tom Fenton said:
