Is this an '84 1/2 or newer Scirocco?
In mid-'84 VW went from a heavy caliper pin with a 7mm head, to a 6mm

Its an 85 with the 6mm and sleeve. The sleeve was missing so I did a
GettoFab Fix that would make any real mechanic flinch. I took some rubber
sleeve pieces and shoved em in there and silicone the ends. I'll probably
just drill the head off, take the caliper off, and use a pair of vice grips
to get the remains of the bolt off. But I was wondering if any had any
better Ideas.
