Was told by Rokkor that they were not out yet for the mkV. The rear design is different then the mkiv . Alot of people have tried to get them to work but doesnt.

You were very misinformed then. There is no difference between the MK5,Mk6and Audi A3 FWD chassis suspension wise. They all use the Mcphearson strut up front and Strut and spring in the rear. The MK4 as you stated is different than the MK5 and MK6 bu MK5 and MK6 are the same.

Incorrect. The MK6 Jetta 2.0, 2.5SE and TDI had different suspension that is not compatible with the MK5 suspension components (because they went back to a straight beam axle) however the MK6 Jetta SEL and GLI share the similar components as they are independent suspension still.
Looks good Laduke! Same wheels as mine just polished.
