"Rabbits" have 100mm starting in mid 1984 on the Convertible and the
Scirocco with the JH 1.8L engine.  I think the splines are different on the
"Rabbit" joints as compared to the Vanagon.

Actually there is no way they could be rabbit or bug. Rabbits have 90mm
joints and Vanagons have 100mm joints.
