90' spec was never used on the Golf2.  They used '90 spec on that, then changed to 90' spec on the Golf3 when they realised what a huge yacht it was....

Slick's at Bugjam DH hence no lockage!

Strac pretty sure there is an entire form on the internet devoted to M2VR's, have a search and see what you can find. It's going to be harder starting with a 1.6 driver so you may want to consider picking up a 90 onwards 8v GTI to do it to. That'll already have the rear discs and a closer to correct wiring loom.
