I think the only exception to the I 4 VW engines from 1980-1998 for the thermostat cover were Foxes. Should be the same as all the others. I'm assuming you have a 1.6 or 1.9 diesel and not a flat gasser !!

Vanagon style is different from most.  Jetta/Golf/Rabbit angle straight off the water pump and will run into the pass side mounting bracket.  I think Quantums may be the same as the vanagon.  The vanagon one angles away from the block @ a 45°.  I have one.
