Hi, i just want to ask if i can use MK5 front axle arms on my MK3. I cant find any MK3 arms in shops. Thanks.

think you need to state if FWD or RWD to get an answer on this

ive had a quick look on ebay .. think the bushes for the arms are available plus used arms are available, but not sure as some Europeans work on a different scale for the "mk's"

you can go to "catcar info" and compare the part numbers

You can install MK5 control arms on an MK3, but with such a modification, you won't pass a UK MOT.
I live in Ukraine and had this modification done last year. But until this year, we didn't have to pass a MOT. Starting this year, the government that 73% of stupid Ukrainians voted for six years ago has reintroduced MOT.
Zelenskyy's thieves want to rob the budget, the population, and international aid during the war as much as possible. It will be like before—pay $100 or more and you don't have to show your car to the inspector. I have three cars.
Sorry for the outburst.

Unless you drive in reverse everywhere

Then they would be a rear engine fwd

Thinking outside the box here.
