    Yeah hoping to get them refurbed and also fit the recaros ect , got the rs for £200

    The rust is so bad on it the door falls to the ground when i open it the piller is fooked , the rear spoiler lifted off and there is a 3 inch hole in the middle of the tailgate , but the engine had a recent overhaul so it runs very well .

    the recaros may be a bit of a scutter to fit as they have different subframes i believe, but im sure you will find a way around it

    not sure on the box mate although i would say yes it will.

    i fitted a zetec to me 3door mk4 bonus shell and its sweet!!! with the RS2k I4 powerplant ul having lots of fun, although traction could be an issue!!!!

    it is with me 1800!!!

    Sideways is the best way.

    chiz did you use the zetec box on yours or did you swap the flywheel & put a mk4 on it ? as i know the mk5 will fit the mk3 but not sure if it fitted the mk4 as it will save me messing about

    i just used the zetec clutch and bolted up the 4speed from the mk4 mate, fits no problem, although ur 2L flywheel n clutch will be different me thinks..... so ul need a cvh fly n clutch maybe?? or 1800 zetec fly/clutch??

    does that help mate??
