   Yup but thats age related generally and not engine related.
   
   Majority of mk1's use flat type shafts, and mk2's generally use tapered shafts. But thats wheel bearing related so hub end. The gearbox end of the shafts is the same.

   Shafts wont be a problem as its the hub end thats different, where they go into the gearbox are the same
