   How do I tell the difference? How much are these generally? Anybody have a link or company name they have used to buy these clutches cheap or? I have seen gsf sell them on eBay for £98
   Cheers for the help Chris

   I wouldn't settle for other than Valeo now. Just gave the GTI a new clutch and replaced the the R's when i had it. Try your local motor factors, they should give good prices. If i remember rightly 106 parts do a 200mm clutch kit for £89, not sure if it will fit yours. There is the 180 and 200mm sizes

    I offer a Valeo fully fitted for £190. Also offer a 'plus' service with this for an extra £45 and that's replacing all the seals.
