Thanks for that. I hadn’t managed to find that link. I’m not going to worry about the few kg extra from the OSS on the ride height. I don’t know of any ground level enough to notice the difference

For the bump stops, it might be better to search for 6Q0412301A rather than 8Z0412301 or 8Z0412301D as very little comes up on autodoc using these two OEM part numbers.
There are four OEM part numbers listed for bump stops on the "Audi Online Parts Catalogue", the other being 8Z0412301C.

For 1.4 Tdi's.
Front rubber stops
8Z0 412 301 D (63 mm)
8Z0 412 301 (74 mm)
8Z0 412 301 C (86 mm)
Looks like aftermarked can`t offer 63 mm at the moment.This is for the G22 comfort build.Short rubber stops for G22 in the front, so the shock abs.can move longer.opposite rear, where rubberstops are longer for the G22 comfort build.(8Z0 512 131 C)
Rear rubber stops
6Q0 512 131 B (123 mm )
8Z0 512 131 C (140mm)

I've slowly been accumulating the parts for a suspension re-fresh. I've got B4s and top mounts, with springs, bump stops and drop links on order. I notice there are two ARB diameters - 16 & 20.8. Short of getting under the car with a calliper, is there another way of establishing which size bushes I need?
The roll bar is the same daimeter on both versions but the earlier one was fitted with plastic sleeves and the bigger bore bushes. The change happened around 2003 so your 2005 car (is that correct) will need the smaller ones
There are pics in this post showing the different versions of the roll bar - https://www.a2oc.net/community/inde...-roll-bar-arb-diy-replacement.6341/post-49357

A word of warning for those looking to renew their front suspension and considering KYB RH1664 springs. I've posted a more indepth thread here asking for advice on replacement springs but the TL : DR is....
I was under the impression that they would be fine on the heavier TDI model but after a full front end rebuild (with Monroe Reflex shocks) the car sits comically high, even taking into account a slightly sagging rear end. (2001 1.4 TDI non sunroof model).

I don't know for sure but could it be that the sagging rear is possibly contributing to the high looking front and might actually be the sole problem? ?A word of warning for those looking to renew their front suspension and considering KYB RH1664 springs.

A good shout, and definitely something I've considered in the full thread. I just wonder, whilst it might balance things out front to back, it won't fundamentally change the actual height at the front which is way above where it should be. It's booked in for the rear suspension overhaul shortly so will find out either way, although I'm looking for recommendations on alternative front springs in the meantime.
Although it obviously won't bring it down to your desired height, as the car was before you replaced anything (which appears considerably lower than standard to me) I think you will find that it will drop the front down slightly as at the moment it's almost being cantilevered up, like when you have something very heavy in the boot but I suppose as you say you will only tell for sure when the rear is replaced too ?

Are they crazy money from a dealer? Otherwise I would try to find someone with access to tps. (Trade) the rear ones re likely common to polo's seats etc

Hi there Southpaw
Have you tried a Skoda or Seat dealer yet ... I found the link below from Amazon if it's any use.

Do you mean N10207803?
Audi A2
| 10 | N10207803 | Hexagon bolt | M12x1.5x78 | 2 |
If so, you might be able to use the following part from the VW Polo MK4...although N10207803 is still available.
