    Firewall spare holes, or are they used for something ?

    When taking my 2a apart almost two years ago, I took lots of pictures of the drivers side, but I didn't pay much attention to the passenger side. Now I'm putting it back together, I'm struggling a bit to know what else goes on the drivers side apart from the chassis riser and the strut, so I would like to know of there's anything else that needs to attach, especially to the holes I have identified in the attached pic.

    Any help appreciated

    Cheers,
    John

    I think they are for the LHD version, my s3 had some holes with gromits in them which match up to the drivers side throttle pedal, brake booster/clutch and steering box all had holes on the passenger side also.

    As above. Fill them with blind grommets.

    Bunnings sell them too if clarks hard to get to. In the special bolt section (the little packets) down the bottom normally along with red nylon washers which make great sump plug washersFirewall spare holes, or are they used for something ?

    My experience is that carefully finding and plugging all the unused holes works wonders for cabin noise! As well as keeping the mud out.
