16V exhaust middle box

Recommended Posts

Anyone know if the square exhaust middle box on 1990 1.8 16v C - one back from the back box - is the same as a mk2 golf GTi. The bloke from Kwik fit reckons its the same part number and can fit it for £90, rather than order from VW at £150.

The part number on ETKA is 535253409A so Is a Corrado specific part (about £100 from VW but maybe cheaper than that now as my ETKA prices are well out of date)

 

Saying that they can probably bodge a GTi one to fit....

They all *look* very similar, tbh. The VR6 one looks a lot like the 2.0 16V one, and vice versa. I know they're different part numbers, but it's probably all in the detailing. Trouble is, if you buy it and it doesn't fit right, you're shafted! :(

Very happy with the job Kwik fit did. Their first box only had one hanger, so they fitted that to get me mobile, and refitted the box with 2 hangers the next week, replaced the front box free of charge, and fitted the back box I bought from GSF. Top job

:)
