Your mechanics talking crap :P or alteast hasnt done one in the past.

The cupra bush will fit both 9N and 9N3 100% as I had them in my 9N and now in the new 9N3 GTI. They do look a bit small in camparison to the crappy standard ones but
will fit no problem.

If your mechanics not confident about fitting them then better looking somewhere else.

Yes mate its from the IBIZA cupra range and also a genuine part number so can only be purchased from a seat or VAG parts dealer.
They cost roughly about £11 incl vat
