First of all there are 2 sizes in a 1303 L bug that i know of.

There is a smaller shaft size that fitted the 3 bolt early models (73ish) and the larger shaft that filled the 74+ years.

Either way i would not expect it too.

For a company that made inter changeable guards and doors, VW went over the top in making sure there steering wheels dont swap too easily - especialy the later years

wouldn't the size of the Golf steering wheel make turning on the kombi hard work? the bigger the steering wheel the easier the turning?
