Re: Attn MkI 16V Owners- Radiator hose question

["Craig Williams" <roccolister@hotmail.com>]

John,

I believe I used a hose from a diesel Rabbit, and only had to cut the length
of it a little. I am using the stock 1981 radiator from my Scirocco (my car
came with A/C if that matters) and everything has worked fine for 9 years.
