There are all the same. ********************************** Not ALL relays are the same. While a majority of relays may LOOK the same, many have different amperage requirements - never use a lighter load rated relay in the application you're trying to replace, yer just asking for trouble, like a fire for instance (don't dis or laugh at that - I've seen it happen). Using relays from a junker vehicle is a crapshoot, but yeah it's cheap to experiment I guess. I always go with new ones whenever possible. FWIW, applications for this A/C Relay are: Rabbit Cabriolet 83-on Jetta 83-on Scirocco 83-88 Corrado 89-on Fox 87-93 Quantum & Syncro 83-88 Passat 90-92 Vanagon 88-91 My PN 171-9251A, my price $14.95
