will the newer style bumper from a 1999 model fit a 1995 model. Also is this a diy job or is it difficult.

APPARENTLY SO... but at a guess the wiring to the indicators will be a different plug like it is on the mrk2 golf big bumper model but i'm sure it'll only be a case od neatly chopping wires.

the fixings should be the same ... mmmmmmmmmm porshe indicators Smile

yes the newer 1999 style bumper will fit a 1995 cabriolet. You dont need to make any changes, as rich sayes you may need to change the fog and indicator wiring socket.

I saw one on ebay for sale yesterday, it was a 1999 2.6v in silver. No pictures and it is only £20 at the moment.

what a kn0b Confused

he says (in the ammended listing) that one sold for £150 before

but aren't they about that brand new anyway?
i thought they were about £140??

you can see straight away its not as there's no lip, and its dam obvious, the ONLY similarities are the recsesses for the fogs/indicators Confused

why did he say... "several emails, some saying it is and some saying it isn't an S2 bumper" how thick can you get, people are ONLY going to email him telling him he's wrong, its not an S2 bumper, get it right, your a......

sorry, bad day Laughing feel better now Smile
