£7?! Got mine from tps, they were on back order for ages. You get yours from a vw dealer? how long ago? If you got yours for that price can i go back to tps and ask for them to refund the difference?

i was under the impression febi bolts arnt g40 specific, other wise i would have bought them, opposed to getting ripped off by vw

Thanks for the info, bit peeved that i bought them at such a high price, might as well keep them rather than sell them for that much less than i bought them for
out of interest how much are febi ones?

i got mine from tps at £7 a bolt. Remember thinking £70 was a lot for some bolts.
