Would a passenger side drive shaft fit the middle of the driverside driveshaft on an hdi 2.0? i just bought a passengerside driveshaft and was going to split the driverside one then use it, im just wondering if anyone knows if it would fit? plus would the driveshaft from this car fit mine hdi?

once you split the longer shaft in between, i can almost guarantee you will need new bearing before you can put them back together.
so i would just pick up the correct shaft
