Well after a bit of a search for strut braces it seems the s3 is the one to go for! However you have to buy these new as they hardly come up for sale second hand, so I did a bit of searching on the tt strut brace someone on here even asked if they fit and the general answer was they look the same but have 2 extra brackets and no one could give a 100% yes they fit.

Well I can knowing that it was steel and I can weld I bought one on the pretense that if it didn't fit then I could chop and re weld it but it fits and you don't even have to chop the extra brackets off ( although I will for a neater job) and it cost under £30 just got to get the lower one now.

Just thought I would share and give a 100% it fits!!

Nice one!

That should help a few TT strut braces get sold now!

will do soon, althought it fits i haven't painted it so until next sat it's not being fitted.

well the brackets have been cut off and re-painted however i've not bolted it down yet due to it being a bit cold anyhow here is a photo of it in place and a photo of the part no.

can save money now haha
