I don't think so, on my mk1 the splines are a lot smaller than a mk2.

'89 and onwards cars have the later type of spline> The earlier spline is the same on both MK1 and MK2.

VW sell adapters to convert the splines over

Snap-off contacted me at last and confirmed it will fit, just as modulator stated.

cheers for your help! (saved me a few quid) :)
