    When doing the Syncro conversion, does the FWD center console from the Mk2 Golf/Jetta fit the new taller tunnel and what about the carpet?

    The 2WD console is to tall & will not fit, the 2WD G60 console will fit though.
    The 2WD carpet also will not fit over the transmission tunnel as its to short.

    That’s what I suspected on both items. I’m sure I can find a console used but what about the carpet is it possible to get a new one for my Jetta?

    No, the carpet is no longer available new.

    However people have been known to slice the carpet along the centerline & either tape or sew a suitable 2 inch(ish) wide strip of similar carpet in, it fits then!

    Humm. [:(] Do you know if all the Syncro carpets are the same, 2 door vs. 4 door? Looks like I’ll have to source a used set.

    Looking in ETKA 2 & 4 door carpets have the same part number, so should be the same.

    I will look when I swap mine over from 2 door to 4 door

    I got a carpet and center console from Germany. Shipping to USA will be expensive.

    Its the plastic warm air vents to the rear footwells, they are the flat things in photo on the sides of the propshaft tunnel.

    I am not sure if my 16V Jetta has those things already but I do not think so. I know the Golf Syncro that I sourced the tunnel does not have them.

    I think that they were only fitted to certain Syncro models & possibly the other high tunnel Golfs.
    Part number is 191 819 803 or 803A depending on year
