I think the mk3 boxes are all 02A so you'd need to convert to cable shift, but it will bolt straight on

Only the MK3 GTIs were hydro clutch boxes, the lower spec models all had rod change.  While you're looking at MK3s, nab the weighted shift rod (found on all low spec MK3s) and the variable intermittant wiper relay (#99)
