  1. Don't forget L to RHS, R to LHS. 🙂
  2. RTS ones are the only ones that fit afaik. Checkout info on Lupo GTI Facebook page. I've just fitted them to mine. All ok but note they must be fitted opposite side i.e. one marked L on RHS of car. It's true honest. Regards Chris
  3. I'm currently restoring my GTI. As far as I know the front caliper carriers are unique to the GTI to fit the 25mm thick discs. These carriers are no longer available in any colour. I plan to repaint mine and fit new guides from BiggRed. Hope that helps. Best of luck.
  4. Thanks to most of you for the kind suggestions 🙂
  5. Looks like bolt N90633002 is unavailable now. What have people used instead? Much appreciated. Regards Chris
  6. I've found more info on here dated 2021, thanks anyway.
  7. Hi All, Does anyone have the spec, part number and supplier for the two bolts and nuts that mount the hub to the lower end of the front shock absorber? Many thanks Chris
  8. Not sure using this thread is the most efficient way. A fully collaborative list that members can add/edit part numbers and suppliers - would that work and if yes, how do we create it? I'm sure we've all got items to add and save effort for everyone.
  9. I share and understand your frustration caused mostly by VWs lack of main dealer support. But I've obtained many parts from... https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.com/catalog/en_uk/nav/lupo/ and https://www.oemvwshop.com/6e-2004-2006-c3234/ I'm currently undergoing a rolling restoration of my 2004 GTI which I've owned for 19 years. This forum and the GTI Facebook pages are excellent help. A single cross reference list would be a massive help to us all - just needs somebody to "own" it. Currently I'm concentrating on the underside and running gear of my car - so if you need any part numbers etc., just ask, I'll tell you what I've used. Stick with it - most 20+ year old cars will come with this problem. Best of luck, Chris
  10. Haven't found one, but maybe I'm using the wrong key words. Thanks for your suggestion.
  11. Hi All, Anyone have one of the above in useable condition please? Much appreciated, Chris
  12. Hi All, I am missing one of the above items. Does anyone have any lying around? Many thanks Chris
  13. Many thanks to you both for your info, much appreciated, regards Chris
  14. Hi All, I'm just about to begin restoration of my GTI rear beam. The rear stub axle mounting plates are quite crusty. Only one side, part number 6E0501466A, is available from VW Classic Parts. So two questions please... 1. I assume these two parts, 6E0501466A and 6E0501465A must be handed somehow. In what way? Could I convert/modify two 6E0501466A to fit? 2. Does anybody remanufacture this part? I have had a company called Epytec suggested but they only appear to offer a camber adjustment plate. Any help much appreciated, Thanks Chris
  15. Hi All, Anybody using a fitted outdoor cover for thier Lupo GTI that they can recommend please? Thanks Chris
