The best and safest method is find something like a 106 GTI or saxo VTR/VTS in a scrap yard and buy the rear axle etc.... Otherwise its just not even worth thinking about.

was told the same thing a few years back the g/f had a saxo, and unless you get a scrapper, it works out very very expensive

Loads of companies cater for 3 stud fitment - and they have correct offsets to.
