If you're buying a new clutch, why not just get the right one for your model year?

Unless you're getting one weally weally cheap?

I would suggest then, my good Sir, you give someone like API a ring (they're open sat mornings I think), and have a word with David O'Brien. He builds gearboxes for a living so should know more than most

They're open at 8.30am if I remember correctly. Quick call to confirm it will fit (unless you get an ofermative on here this evening) and away you go, got all Sat/Sun to sort yourself out

STOP!

Hammer time

Tommy, you do know how much hassle folk have had of recent with Flat4Online don't you? It takes an awful long time for bits to come as they guy running the show generally doesn't hold stock and waits for bits to be ordered first, then orders them in for despatch to the customer.

What I'm saying is unless you have weeks to wait look elsewhere. Plenty of pissed off folk in the traders area complaining about order times.

HTH mate
