Those are the correct mudflaps for that bumper Iain.

If you get the wrong ones they don't go near. The mounting screw towards the rear of the car is countersunk by around 8mm on the later bumper so you introduce the same gap on the bottom of the flap when you fit it to a pre-97.

I can only assume the parts were listed incorrectly. There are definitely two types and they are definitely not compatible.

It will bodge but you need to cut a large amount of the rear of the flap away and it'll still look wrong. My Opel ones on the GSi have this problem but they cost £18 and can't be refunded because they were special order so I bodged it. Wasn't really so happy with the outcome though.
