Mk2 Golf ones are the nearest compatible items, BUT there is an issue with the diameter of the bush in the golf ones in that it is larger than the ARB diameter. So you have to find some way of sleeving the bush at the same time as retaining the security of the part. Can't have the bush sliding off the sleeve, or the sleeve moving on the ARB when in operational mode!

Thank you jeff. I have already asked Damens but have not had no reply yet

Damen and Kroes have 4 top suspension cups in stock, you can still get then as ive already said Part Number FAM9456 But from them they wont be cheap, bearings are NLA but if you take yours to a company that sells bearings they could possibly match them. That's what I would do as the main cups normally only need cleaning and re-greasing.
Jacking points. Front BEP2059 is the same for both sides Damens have one in stock, rears are different RH BEP942 LH BEP943 all NLA that's the same for estate and saloon, so get fabricating. All a fabricator would need is you to show them your car and for them to measure and take pictures of it/them. Quite easy really and normally no fuss

Read this, it's all been done before, as usual you just need to look ,http://maestro.org.uk/forums/forum/g...ernative-parts

Get researching then, it's very time consuming with no thanks at the end of if. People only want this when they need something, never offer to do it though when it's not needed.
best of luck with that. I've had parts fabricated, sourced rare parts , bought bulk stock , given info in the past as did Sean and Mal. No one wanted to pay top money and even now some moan about the prices of parts . I for one won't be doing this again , if it's just jacking points you need, it's best to get fabricated and while you're there get a bulk set done to sell on , but be aware you won't make very much and you'll get moaned at trying to cover your costs and make enough to make it worthwhile. If you do get a bulk supply , make sure you post recorded delivery as a few somehow don't get delivered so you actually lose money helping others.

It dosent have to be one person doing it If a part or an alteritive parts found it can be added to a list with deatail of where you can get it from
