Your best bet is to try and find a later MKI Cabrio in a scrapyard, as most likely it will have PAS.

If the car is 100% original, I would leave it as such. Manual steering in a MKI isn't much harder than PAS in some larger cars.

My wife can drive a Manual steering car without problems.

As far as other PAS racks from different cars. I wouldn't bother. It's probably alot more trouble than it's worth, and I would want to do a proper install, not some jerry-rigged, half-azz hack job. :)

No mk1 golf cab right hand drive ever came with PAS!!! There was a kit developed by TSR which can be puchased as a aftermarket add on for aobut £1500...Ouch. It is made up of a bluebird rack with mount adapters, Moddified pinon half mk1 anf half bluebird. Just so happens i was half through the conversion but had to get the cab back on road for inters...

hope this info helps a bit..
