The difference:
![](https://i.imgur.com/j1fF6j9.jpg?1)
The golf handle pushes down
![](https://i.imgur.com/2j0xLIl.jpg?1)
and the passat handle pushes forward.
![](https://i.imgur.com/AvhuMpN.jpg?1)
maybee i should buy the whole locking system from the passat or? i've seen those handles on mk1 and i would be very thankfull if someone helps me.
Thanks
