firstly it looks like this:
it bolts onto the two strut tops and basically make the chassis a bit more rigid so that it doesn't flex as much going through corners etc!
£50 from Seat and should fit ur car i do believe, someone should be able to clarify that for me tho!

yup it does fit..just found Dinos guide for the Seat strut brace on his 9N..Will it make much of a difference on a 1.2? Or is it more effective when ive got my coilovers fitted?

i fitted mine before i had coilovers and i could tell it was fitted! the car felt much stiffer through corners, maybe slightly less roll!
i think it would work on ur 1.2 as u still have to go round corners don't ya

Think I would lose the lower chrome grille but the top one looks fine.
Can't fault the rest and the exhaust looks very neat.

Just ordered some of the 9n3 GTI side skirts for my 9n, (£23+VAT each from VAG Parts, bargain!)
Anyway, was wondering how they attach to the car? If you could get a few pics to show how, that'd be fantastic
