If you would like a front wishbone excluding ball joint and you can pick up, I have a pair from my 20k mile Pirelli. £25 pair or £15 each.

I also have stiffer bushes from the TT MkII brand new £15 each

thanks for the offer, will these be the same size as a standard GTI and is it much more work involved to take out and replace whole wishbone, sorry im not a mechanic so just need to ask, also where abouts are you?

I had the garage change my front bushes and it took about an hour, about £90 I think I paid.
