   You can get them off the 106 gti. But you will need to fabricate some mounts for them

    arent the 106 lifters welded to the car by the suspension turrets? you'd need to get them off somehow... I think I might see how much they are from pug and that way I can just get them welded to the top of my turrets! was thinking baout this the other day leant over the engine bay of an old 106!...

    might do to pug and get a quote for new ones and i wouldnt like to try and unweld the ones from a car in a scrappy, cheers for the piccy! Ive seen where they mount before though, I was more thinking about how you would get them off without bending them loads!?

    Buy new would be best, if not i think they may only be spot welded so a large hammer and a sturdy screw driver may suffice?

    gettin them off aint easy specially if u are wanting the base bits that weld onto the suspension struts, i drilled mine off a 106gti then had them welded back onto mine
