MK1s never came with 100mm axles as far as I know. You will need to either change the output flanges on the transaxle to 90mm, or take the 100mm flanges off the Mk2 axles and put them on the MK1 axles and leave the output flanges alone(This is the better option)

scirocco 16v. 87 - 88 had 100mm, mk2 rocco is still an A1 car

There you go, problem solved. Now all you need is a 16V scirocco......
Better yet, take the axles you have, go to NAPA or somewhere, tell them they are for a 88 16V Scirocco and use them for the cores, now you can get new ones without having to pay the core charge...That is how I got my new one. I used a bad one from my 80 rabbit and got a longer one to fit my GTI with MK2 hubs.......
