All you need is the odd red stripe here and there and a pair of covered fogs and I wouldn't be able to tell them apart :lol: Looking good ;)

I had a set on my old Coupe S - looked sooooo baby MKI GTI - loved it but damn it made the steering heavy!!!!

Strangely, I didn't notice much difference to the weight of the steering on mine. There's a lot more feel now from the wider/lower profile tyres, and it has a bit more of a mind of it's own - tries to follow every little lump and pothole. I do notice that it's bloody heavy now when I fill it up with passengers, but not really when it's just me. My dad drove it the other day and he did comment how heavy it was, but I think that's because he's used to power steering and he was expecting it to be particularly heavy now anyway..

cheers chaps. Steering doesnt feel much different. but Im used to my GT which has heavier steering anyway. The car is slightly less mint than it looks in the photos im afraid, theres lots of surface rust, the side shown is its good side! Its not the best weather at the mo to attempt to sort it. :P The interior is mint though. :D

I just sold a set the other week :( Check ebay though, there are often waves of them. Wait until the end of a wave and the price will come down to about £40 a set.
