Okay, so it's just a few wheel bearings...(that I've come across so far)

Front 914/4 wheel bearings are the same as the 84-96 GTI rear wheel bearings(possibly other watercooled VW models as well)

So, what does this mean?

Hell if I know, but I think it might be possible to bolt on rotors with a factory drilled 4x100 or 5x100 pattern AND/OR vented rotors if available.

I'm still doing some research on this and I just might have to hit the pick-n-pull to verify this one of these days.

Pretty cool.


But.. just because they use the same bearing doesnt mean that the distance between the bearings is the same (unless you know this and didnt say anything)
