Hi
As far as I know they are available locally, except possibly the seals, chat to Ventz, he is in Martizburg and his numbers are in the spare parts suppliers thread.

The sizes are also available in the repair manual (near the back).

the bearings are 6306 with circlip groove and the seals it is best to use originals as they have ribs and are one direction only .the wheel bearing seals use originals they are cheaper and better than the bearing man ones that chris sells if you use the bearing man ones you must use lock tight to hold them in place .DON't USE SKF they had more play than the old ones I was replacing .CV Boots MATCH UP PERFECTLY WITH GOLF 1 am trying the german ones from Goldwargen will let you know how many years they last .

Check your side shafts when you do your CVs one of mine was bent but I only discovered it after I had put everything back together then I saw an uneven mark on the shalf and shock where they had been touching .
