like the heading asks, i have the oppt. to get a 84 jetta dash assb. and would like to know if it fit my pickup . i know the the looks the same as the cabriolet dash in the 85 model and the ft of what looks like a mk 1 so i assume it will fit , but remember dont  assume . i am sure the eletrics are ce2 but can deal with that . any experence anyone?

Physically it will fit. I dont know if it uses differt bracing tho..

Also i am unsure if your cluster and that will work or are you getting those too??

84 would likely be pre-ce1 wiring..

i dont think the wiring is the same between a jetta and a rabbit tho..

If you don't mind me stoping in on your thread 

But I've been wondering if a jetta grill and headlight assembly will fit on a mk1 rabbit 81.
Would you need the radiator support?

Thanks

no its too different... fenders and core support.. the bottoms way different shape

If you have a good mk1 Jetta grille and associated parts, hold onto them. I rarely ever see those on the road around here, or in the junkyards. They've become really rare. Rabbits are much more common.
