No I have a L Jet............'n' the parts diagrams that I come across are D Jets........for both the 1.7 & 2.0........sadly 'nough they don't jive.............the way it seems to fit fine is reversed (both the spring and cable want to give it no throttle.............several of us have looked at this 'n' have said 'how in the hell'............I've even had a buddy who literally grew up in a junkyard (from toddler stage <'n' told me a special tool he created to well, let's say borrow for awhile VW's 'n' Porsche's.......but that was way back>)........oh 'n' I do know it's dark in there

should be about the same as a 1.7L as they are very similar. Right of where it points with the #2 is the throttle cable mount. Bolt it there and then into the Throttle body where it is clamped using one of those VW heater bolt type clamps.
