    Passenger side roll bar

    Trying to take advantage of FFR's black Friday parts sale. I need a chrome passenger side roll bar for my MK4. I can't seem to find a MK4 version on the site - only previous versions. Anyone happen to know the part number?

    I don't think it's listed in the on-line catalog. Not every part is. When I bought a passenger side roll bar for #8674 a year or so ago, I had to call. Too bad. Obviously would be nice to get the 25% off.

    Can you not order by phone, and still get the discount?

    The 25% discount offer specifically says "Online orders only."

    That's the Mk3 2-inch diameter version. Mk4 roll bars (what the OP asked about) are 1-1/2 inch diameter. They list the driver side on-line, but not the passenger side. I looked before I posted, and is the same as when I tried to order one before. Had to call.

    I would call Dave in Parts on Monday and explain the situation. You can buy any part you want over the phone but their online parts catalog is lacking. Perhaps they can work something out with you.

    Paul is correct. The 1-1/2" PS roll bar is P/N 15107 ($399), but doesn't show up if you try to search it.

    I'd like to add a passenger side roll bar to my Mk3 roadster. Has anyone done this? If so any suggestions on how to set the hole pattern on the body - especially for the angled bar 3rd bar?

    I did it, not that hard just out in the main hoop and use straight edges to line the back bar up. start with a small hole and work your way up.
