Sorry if i have posted this in the wrong place ?

As you may know if you read the thread my gti 16v mk3 abf has toasted its starter motor, there are loads of 8v's breaking but i have yet to see a 16v. I think they are probably the same but I am unsure. Doers anyone know for sure ?  Thanks in advance for any advice.
