QUICK Q. Will a Golf GTI exhaust fit a Leon FR?

[CTID]

As above really. Golf GTI Mk5 Exhuast from cat back fit a Leon FR?

I'd of thought hangers are in the same position, but I bet the bumper cutout is in a different place?

Thanks, Tony.

Does anyone know?

It appears to look the same from the rear...

I know that the downpipe is the same, I bought an Audi a3 downpipe for my Leon.

 

[CTID]

Hmm, Ok. Thanks mate.

Got a straight through pipe on mine that is way to noisy and want to stick a standard exhaust on it, but the only one local is a GTI. Might have to pop over and do some measuring.

 

[F3ADM]

I think they are the same, but not 100% sure

 

[CTID]

Yeah definitely look the same.

Online part catalogues show that the middle box for the BWA engined GTI and FR are very similar with different suffixes...

Middle silencer:
GTI - 1K0 253 209 AQ
FR - 1K0 253 209 AH

Backbox:
GTI - 1K6 253 609 BG
FR - 5P0 253 609 H

Obviously the parts catalogues show the same diagrams for both cars.

And...

Comparing the two with online images they both look similar.

Both very similar from the back, and roughly an equal distance from edge of number plate.

Suppose the only real way to find out is to measure them...
