"These pistons don't turn in do they?"

Yes.  I have done them on my wife's 01 golf, and need to do them again.

Rear caliper update kit. Updates your car to the lighter aluminum VW Mk4 calipers. Kit includes all parts necessary for conversion. Includes new left rear and right rear aluminum calipers, required hydraulic hoses and banjo bolts. No additional parts or modifications needed, simple bolt-on.

These pistons don't turn in do they?

A1 (Scirocco 16v), A2, A3, and A4 Calipers are all about the same. A1/A2 are identical, A3 have the bleeder in a different spot(actually better, as it is located higher on the caliper), then of course the A4 has the aluminum calipers and banjo bolts.. But replacing the short line isn't that difficult. ;)

The Mk3s have the 22mm MC, as does the Mk2 rear disc cars, and the Scirocco 16v.

The rear brake calipers on my 91 gli are steel, not aluminum, and the
piston has to be turned in.  I believe all A2 rear calipers were the
same.  The ones on my wife's A4 are aluminum and I have heard they bolt
up to an A2, but the lines are the issue because they take a banjo type
connection instead of a threaded type.
