    AFAIK the inner bushes are a different design and have a 'dog bone' through the middle of the bush which then bolts on with two bolts per bush to the subframe. I believe the diesel TCA's are the same design.

    NB is right, the AWD wishbones are the same as used on the diesel, R and police spec models. What you want is the 4 bolt wishbones, the standard T5 has the 2 bolt wishbones.

    I got mine from GSFcarparts for a good price (about £60 each) and they've been fine for the last two years.
