Wiper arm question

Do all Mk2's use the same wiper arm? I have a 91 Golf, and the only listings for wiper arms I can find are for 86 Jetta. Does anyone know if they will fit? I know I could just do the junkyard thing, but would prefer new ones in the hope that they will last longer.

yes, I am pretty sure they are the same, all the MK2 windshields,. from the golfs anbd jettas are interchangeable, so the wiper arms should be the same length.

You don't rev a VW diesel, you increase the clatter.

I think the posts they bolt to are larger in diameter on the later A2s.
I know my '91 Golf has the larger posts.
