not without moving a few bits n pieces about. when i boght mine i was told the only upper brace that is a direct fit is the e-tech one. Hope this helps

yeah, it'll fit, you should only need to relocate your inertia switch, the red button looking thing on near the passenger suspention strut. its well easy to do though!!

yeah, i'm not fussed about having to re-locate the fuel cut off switch, just need to make sure the bonnet will close with it on!

The bonnet is a bugger to close with a strut brace on a MK1, I speak from experience. My MK1 VTS has one, and without cutting a section out for it, or just slamming the bonnet really hard so it makes an indent :p it wont be a perfect fit.

the main thing is that its got a recess so it can fit behind the break fluid resviour, from the little picture i can't tell if it does mate. it does say it fits all models. i've got stuff from Kam racing before and they are a good reputable site, they wont be telling porkies.

I got an e-tech one, it fitted perfectly, until i had to shut bonnet. I then found out i had to take the bonnet catch off so the bonnet would shut properly.
