Yes, it will fit! Had to pick one up today so I can start with the engine swap on my '01 Golf TDI in the next week or so. The only part that had me worried was the extendable arm that I should have removed, but I just covered it up and prayed it would not hit the glass on a big bump. Also, the car was noticeably slower and it affected the handling as well as all the weight was biased at the rear, though I never took a look at the car if the rear was now sagging because of it. Anyway, an engine hoist will fit in the back if you have no passengers there. I cannot wait to get my TDI running. -glenn
