the grills fit on mk4/5's as they both have the same headlights - has the dash got the cup holder and the document clip holder on it :?: also does it have vents in the back panels near the rear doors :?:

The passenger side one has two positions and the support/strut is different.
Is it on the inner or out hole fixings of the grill :?:
