if not, you need to find some VWII calipers. however all later mk1 1.5-1.8 had VWII, only the really early cabbies and those with 1.0-1.3 engines had the older style calipers

well they're deffo VWII 'style' calipers you have there, pretty sure I can see VWII stamped on them at the bottom there?
worst case, yeah get another VWII caliper and its all good.
basicaly, all MK1s with that style caliper should have VWII, it was only MK2 Golfs and Polos that had that shape caliper but VWI, if that makes any sense at all?
The lower spec MK1s got a completely different shape caliper instead of VWI .
