By the way, the door lock is from a Golf 1 or Golf 2, difference between both is the plastic insert which is white or black, both will work, sometimes "France" or "Germany" is stamped into the lock, so if you have a preference..... [

The striker bolts loose their plastic damper ring during the years, the doors and locks will start to rattle then and the door will scratch on the body at the rear top of the door sealing flange and damage the paint.
The striker bolt you should order from Golf 1 !!
The Golf 2 part is different a bit, the hex part of the bolt is longer in center line direction and the threaded part is the same amount shorter as the hex is longer, this means you wont find the thread of the moving nut behind the body with the Golf2 striker bolt.
