I noticed today that one of the tabs on the top part of the airbox has been slightly bent and therefore it doesn't sit quite right over the filter.  I know its a long shot but does anyone know of a second hand airbox for a vRS anywhere?  Perhaps this could also be a VW part?

Also, does anyone know if the alternator is the same as a Golf / Polo?

Some part numbers from the side of the airbox:

ZSB: 6Q0 129 601 AJ
600 183

Filter: 6Q0 129 607 AJ
Filterelement: 6Q0 129 620
LX 708

Anyone know what ZSB is?  Looks like it could be the same as a 9N Polo.

This guy might be able to help:

Not sure if the petrol and diesel airbox is the same...

I have a complete airfilterbox from a 9N Polo, will have to check numbers if thats what you need.

The alternator is more likely to be the same as on a Golf than a Polo, you will need to know the Amperage and wether its a Bosch or Valeo.

Pretty sure I have an alternator also.

Cool, thanks guys.  That guy on TM is hopeless.

Vert is your Polo petrol or diesel?  The airboxes are different.

Cheers

The Polo I wrecked was a 1.4 petrol.

Anyone got an alternator part number 038 903 023 L?

It's a 90A and could possibly be the same as a Golf / Polo.

I want to buy one to rule something out with the vRS.

Cheers
