They said the beams themselves vary but the bushes are interchangeable between mk4 and 9N3 Polo. I'll keep looking into that though. They said the 034 sphericals aren't sealed/shielded though and so will wear out on the street.
If what they say is true though then those leon cupra solid bushes might fit which gives me something good to fall back on. The engineer just called to say that he's finished the welding/boxing of my rear beam so it'll be good to get everything to do with that underway now and I csn measure the bush voids to see if they are in fact 72.5mm and not the 69.5mm that I've seen quoted for our cars.
thanks
FYI mine were 69.5mm. I got the 72mm mk4 golf ones first and obviously they didnt fit
