Yes, up until 1987 when VW switched to the different tooth patern on the
inside of the hub.  I had a 4 horn button GTI steering wheel on my double
cab for about 6 months and I liked it except for two things - first, the
idiot lights are obsured so you blind people because you can't see the blue
high beam light is on - second you can't see the top digits on the
speedometer.  I found that I was always looking under the top of the
steering wheel so after a while I replced it with the larger factory
Vanagon one.

Perhaps an even smaller Momo steering wheel might to the trick?  My double
cab has power steering so effort wasn't a problem.  I imagine that no power
steering might re-define "Armstong" steering once again!
