Another Front Shock Question - Any Difference between early & late mk2 fronts?

[Gernster]

Seen some shocks advertised for this model:

All models (except GTiG60, Country & Rallye) - Sport (1/90 - 8/91)

My car was registered 1/90 (8v mk2 gti) so should be ok, but I didnt think there was any difference on the front struts on the later mk2's?

no difference, however late MK2s weighed a bit more than early ones due to big bumpers n other bits n bobs.
