mk3 rear calipers



Actually by flipping the right to left and left to right the bleeder screw 
ends up on the bottom of the caliper and you can not bleed it this way. The 
hassle is that you need to remove the caliper and invert it to bleed it and 
then re attach it to the car. Other than that it seems to be a very 
straight forward swap.
