Well,

They have the MK1 covered pretty completely, in 8v form.  If you have no
ac on your car, this kit might be adaptable? i'd bet that all hoses are
the same except for the top hose from head to radiator, but the 8v hose is
probably longer & could be cut?

Otherwise they have mk2 16v kits, maybe they will let you piece together a
kit out of some parts from one kit and others from another, all you have
to do is figure out what hoses you need from a mk1 GTI and a mk2 16v to
hose up your engine compartment... But i doubt if you have the oddball
upper AC hose they can help much... i'm sure they will work with you to
make up a kit out of their current lineup, then they can list it & sell
more to other rocco 16v owners (unless they are dumb & dont want more
sales, heh)

Here is a list from their site.
