Marc,

What Larry said and �
The banjo fittings, 12 x 1.5 mm thread, can be found on various Golf, Jetta and Rabbit fuel systems of the era.

The GW kit is a bust. Read up on frame-rail coolers. One manufacturer even states: not intended for use on cars exposed to stop and go driving. Grid-lock driving heats up a TQ significantly. Little flow of air over the cooler under this situation.

Brent Weide's web site has fine how-to install a cooler.

Chick-on Transaxle then Transaxle R/R. Nice photo essay on the install.

�..(the hardest part) got the banjo fittings by scouring pick-and-pull junk
yards.  It's been a few years, but I believe the fittings came from PS
pumps on Mercedes or BMWs.
good luck,
