Oil filter relocation kit on N/A?

Hi guys,

 

Just replaced my oil filter for the first time, already hate the experience lol. I saw Greddy has a relocation kit but it specifically says for TT only. Can anyone explain why? I'm still a beginner when it comes to cars but I was under the impression TT and NA used the same filters thus it was assumed an adapter that basically just creates a hose to and from a new location should still be compatible. I'm sure I definitely heard wrong about something or rather, but could someone explain this? Maybe I'm entirely wrong and it would be okay to use on my NA. At any rate it will be swapped with a TT some day so if I cant do it now I'll just live with it. Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys.

I don't know anything about the specific kits, but generally the oil filter on the TT is harder to get to than that on the NA, and that's probably why relocation kits are harder to find for an NA. I don't know if a TT kit wold fit an NA. When I change my filter, I put a few pieces of kitchen roll into a plastic carrier bag, loosen the filter (so I can easily move it by hand, but before it starts to drip), then put the bag over the filter. I then continue to unscrew the filter until it drops into the bag.
