Is there a difference between the mk1 and mk2 because the the repair panel ive got says mk1 on it and I have a mk2 and it doesn't seem to follow the same line where it attaches to the sill.

Thanks in advance, Nick.

more than likely the fact its a pattern part mate , they should all fit the same just will need to be fettled by a body shop to sit nice.

Remeber hearing mk2 is slightly wider? Not sure how true that is

Nope.

Only difference is where the bumper mounts will be.

Only the rear bumper mountings are different

Yeah I've heard of this before. I've got the old max power Haynes Manual and it says there 5mm wider.

Not sure how much I believe tho coming from max power and the Haynes book of lies.

Any way, I fitted mk1 repair panels to mine. The difference was where the bumper mounted on the side.
