RE: Clutch Q's

<x-charset iso-8859-1>Did VW use 12pt. SHCS to hold the CV joints in?  My Bug has them, but my
brother's '85 GTI takes a 6mm allen wrench.  I believe we were the first to
pull that transmission too, and I think the boots are original, so I think
those are also the original bolts.  Haven't looked at those particular bolts
on my 'rocco yet; I just assumed they would be the same as his Golf.

Ok i think there might be some misunderstsanding about what we are talking
about here. My posts were in reference to the cv joint bolts. Theother guy i
think his name is Gary he might have been talking about the flywheel bolts.
If this si the case then i agree with the below and still maintain the
statement that the cv bolts are 8mm written on the socket but the actual
size of the "allen" is a 6mm 12pt. Hope this clarifies things
