    1j2=1j?

    Hi guys I'm just trying to buy some shocks from ebay and before I click the "BUY' button I wanna
    be sure weather series no: 1J2 IN EUROPE is same as 1J in Australia? Like for eg:
    4x Bilstein B8 Sprint Stoßdämpfer VW Bora 1J2 but in australia we call it 1J theres no 2.
    Has anyone experienced with the same issue?

    cheers.

    as above, one is golf, one bora.
    will bolt up the same, only difference could be if the shocks allow for different weights of the cars (not that there is much difference)
    Bora gone
