Right well basically had my first snow driving experience today and it wasnt good managed to slide into a telegraph pole and have damaged the front crossmember/slam panel/crumple bar whatever you may wish to call it, at the moment I have had to remove it and refit the bumper so i could drive it home from work without any noticeable damage to keep the parents happy. So the information im after is I am going to have to go to a breakers tomorrow and get a replacement crossmember wondering would one from an audi a3 or mk4 golf fit the same as a leon one as my local breakers has 1 leon but someones had the crossmember already but there are 4 mk4 golfs there.
Cheers for taking the time to help.

Try going on vagcat.com, and checking out part numbers/diagrams to see if they are similar.
Its a handy resource vagcat.com, especially when replacing dented/broken bits!!

Just had a look on Vagcat and its a great vey helpful website so cheers for recommending it but unfortunatly it couldnt help me as it wasnt very clear about the cross member.
I've had a look at mk4 golfs that are breaking and the pics look like it has the same cross member so I think I will just have to go and have a look and see what I can find.

O right yeh did wonder think theres 2 types one for the 1.4 and 1.6 and 1 for the 1.9 and 1.8 as there are 2 different radiators 1 has the air con rad aswell. Going to have a ride over the breakers anyway as I need the fog lamp switch of the leon anyway so will have a browse and see what I can find.
