As title..

I've found some cheap coilovers but says they're for a 6n2.. Will they fit a 6n?

Thanks.

From reading around different forums (I was after the opposite to you) 6ns on a 6n2, you can use 6n2 coilovers on a 6n aslong as you use the 6n top mounts but not the other way around due to the springs being wider on a 6n.

Don't take this as 100% fact but I'm sure that's how it works, I'm sure someone more knowledgable will be along to either confirm or not, hope that's of some help mate

Ok, thanks for the reply mate. Anyone else used them? Or know anymore?

Pretty sure you can't, the springs are different I believe.

Ok that's still not enough to make me not buy them lol. They are pretty cheap. Anyone 100% on this?

You definitely can't.

The main spring on 6n2 coilovers is larger than that of a 6n counterpart.

The shock will fit but the spring won't. You can either buy new front main springs to sort this out or have top hats made for the main spring (Which acts like a bore adapter) To change the bore size of the main spring to fit your relevant polo.

Brilliant, thank you. So the rears are fine? Urs just the front that won't.

Thanks!
