The ATH, as an 020 box, would mount up fine in the A2 Jetta.   The A3
020 uses the same mounts as the A2 020.

I'm not sure if you'd be able to find one, the Canadian 1.9 IDI's had
CHD and DFP boxes, and there were no A3 Golf or Jetta IDI TD's sold in
the US that I'm aware of.

All of these boxes have the same size input shaft as the 8V 020's in
the A1 and A2 chassis (21,9mm) compared to the 2L gearboxes which had
the 16V sized shaft.

If you're looking for a comparable wide ratio gearbox, take a 7A and
swap the 3.94 for a 3.67, which is what I hope to have done for Cincy
(ok, yeah, that's just not happening...)
