I tried the GTI stalk on my Vanagon, and it does fit...but it is shorter and
at a different angle. While I did get used to it, it wasn't as ergonomic as
the stock stalk :)

Had the idea (similar to Philippe) of using the MFA from an '84 GTI in my
Vanagon. Thought I could  build it into the centre of the dash below the LED
cluster. I got as far as pinning out the GTI foil circuitry, obtaining an
outside temp sensor (turned out to be Celsius, the MFA was a US model and
expected Fahrenheit), and then other things came up and...well its still in
a drawer in the garage.

I did install the tach from the GTI though.
