Yes, they are necessary!! Parts like this should not be left out even if it appears that everything is supported well. The engineers at VW put 2 brackets there for a reason, and leaving them off won't save you anything. Leaving off parts that seem to be reduntant will probably cause stuff to break later on down the line. _____________ List Sponsor: http://www.netsville.com To remove yourself from this list, send mail to [email protected] with 'unsubscribe a2_16v' in the body of your message See us on the web at http://www.a2-16v.com Visit the 16V Homepage at http://www.gti16v.org
