Alternative Manufacturer Parts
« on: March 28, 2014, 01:13:20 pm »
Hi All,

Have been on here a while and noticed a lot of upgrades are being done with TT/S3 parts etc...

Im after some information on all the directly transferable parts by other manufacturers that would upgrade a MK5 GTI.  For example, TT top mounts etc...

Does anyone have a link? Or do you think it would be an idea to start a new thread for everyone to add their knowledge?

Could definitely be a useful resource especially if there were part numbers included too.

It'd be a mother of an opening post though haha and probably quite a lot of upkeep.

So... Start posting  :happy2:
