Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

no. it will not fit.
+1 - not gonna fit
It will fit like a square peg in a round hole.
what part wont fit cos thay look identical i know the turbo will be stiffer but it realy looks like it would fit the car
Totally different wheel carriers.
The shock part.
In addition to the swaybar mount being in a different place, the Turbo and C4S struts are thicker. They won't fit. Similarly, putting a strut made for the others models (e.g. Koni Sport 8741-1543) will require a sleeve as well as new end links. I haven't personally tried it, but after finding out about the swaybar issue I called someone who has done it and he indicated having to make sleeves.
thanks all very much for ur help
