you need to find a mkI 4 door, OR the front doors from a caddy (truck) will fit the fronts on your car.

you sure it's not an 84 Jetta?

Rabbits and Jettas have had the same doors from 80-84.

The 85 Jetta is an entirely different generation. It's doors would swap to an 85+ Golf.

your a little ways away, and if this car in question is indeed not an MK1 (which you need for a donor), then I have a couple doors...depending on which you need...

In really nice shape, etc.
