I couldnt find a modified rack off the shelf so have a new mk2 escort rack.

My original extensions were to book spec and were definately too long.

i havnt got the length of the ones that i used to hand at the moment but if someone doesnt come along with a dimension for you in the mean time, i will measure mine for you tommorow.

I think they need to be approx 30mm shorter each side if i remember correctly but will confirm tommorow.

Hope this helps
