Got this off craig a while ago, doesn't fit my car.

as far as i'm aware, will fit any fto WITHOUT the upgraded brake booster.

am unsure of the brand, but it is adjustable, had it on my old FTO, I quite liked it

craig, if you've got any more info on it, that would be fantastic.

$70 ono, pick up sydney, postage at buyers expense

^^^^^^
not fitted, just sitting on the suspension tops

do you have the standard brake booster, and not the upgraded one?

just making sure because this will NOT fit on the upgraded booster.

not a problem to post though mate, no idea how much it will cost though

To simplify this, the larger brake booster only came from the factory on FTO's with ABS. Although it can be fitted to a non ABS FTO.

On my car they put a different lid to make it fit. I got a VersionR brace and new lid..

So you could make it work if you wanted..
