The only thing I have seen is that some manufacturers
made a front upper bar that worked fine on Rabbits
(Golf 1s) but failed to clear on the lower profile
Scirocco hoods. IF you are getting a bar that mentions
Scirocco Mk1s as applicable then I think you'll be OK.

I have two Neuspeed bars at the house, would some
measurements be of any use?
