Corrado/Passat fit and for more modern looks 3.5 cabby, and mk4s with some modification. or to go the other way, MK1/2 Golf for the old skoolness.  the earlier wheels require the spline adaptor be removed which can be a pain sometimes

Be careful if fitting an aftermarket and buying a boss kit for it though,especially off ebay.Many sellers list them as fitting all mk2's and all mk3's.This is incorrect.Later mk3 has airbag and larger spline and an early boss kit wont fit the later car even if you take the adapter off.

later mk2s and all mk3s have the adaptor spline, the airbag bit you just remove if you have a MK2 late boss. the problem is when they list the early mk2 boss to fit late mk2 and mk3, in that case spline adaptor needs to be removed
