Hey VW folks. Can someone please tell me the diameter of the striker pin on the MK1 Jetta, rabbits, etc?
I'm trying to use a door latch from a jetta for a project...
Thanks!
Nat

Looks like this hasn't got that much love Sad , then I decided to grab a ruller and caliper to went out and take some useful measurements for you and possibly for many of us (at later times, who knows) so this is what I've got looking into the I-shapped cotter pin you are asking about:

I-shapped cotter pin top-hat diameter: 14.5mm
I-shapped cotter pin body diameter: 9mm

I've taken this from apparently #191 837 034, not sure how different it is from #321 837 034 that I rekon should be the ones fitted into European Golf Mk1s by 1982.
