err, no... sorry to disagree but it depends on who makes the twin lamp kit... Both the irmscher ones have a protrusion at the grill where it slot's into the groove on the GTE bumper(directly above the no. plate!)..... If you want to fit the kit to a mk 2 bumer-wearing car, you'll either have to cut the bumper, cut the kit (!) or have an unsightly gap...

The morette one looks shite so don't even get started with that one!!!!

I have some pics somewhere i'll try to post them up!
