   Can buy one for any car, the ones that say for saxo just have a few bits to of hose and clamps etc to make fitting easier. Best bet is to get on ebay and get one with the fitting kit though!

   You looking to run it instead of the oem pump? Or aswell as?
   
   If swell as I'd be tempted with a Bosch 044 as they seem to be very reliable and relatively bullet proof.

   Its a universal pump, careful of replicas though iirc there are a few floating around
