rear pillowball mounts

[JesseH]

would rear mk4 pillowball mounts fit on my mk3? the reason why im curious is my 87' stock mounts are shot and someones offering to sell me some cuscos for really cheap and their new, he said I could bring them back to him if they dont fit, what do you think??

Give it a try and let us know.

the rear bolts that mount to the body are larger on a mk4 they will not fit in the holes

I know that the HKS upper pillow ball mounts that i have on my car are the same for the mk4. the part numbers are the same. I dont know about cusco if they use different bolts but the bolts on the hks mounts fit snug in the rear mount holes.

hmmm now the Cusco's bolts look about the same size as your HKS ones that are in the pic. That makes me want to give it a try, the worst that could happen is I would have to take them back :dunno:

If the pattern is the same just drill it out i had a set of d2 that the bolt was larger and did not fit I tried to install them not knowing they were MK4 coilovers so maybe the cusco might work for you.

so that would that be ok if I drilled out the holes a little bit? the stock ones that are in there right now are a bit too small so Im thinking the they should fit perfect if the bolts are a bit bigger.

no one noticed thats a tems compatable hks pillow ball mount? Rigged the front and rear mounts to attach tems motors to the kokicos.

ok, so i decided to get them and try it, They were a hassle to get in, but they did work and with some moddifacation they fit like a glove, wether their worth the hassle or not i dont know, but they do work a lot better than my worn stock ones
