    I need to replace the alternator on my '85 mk2. Been offered a nearly new one for 20 but just need to know whether it's the right one. GSF website lists a number of different models.

    The one on at the moment is a Bosch, but the rest of the label has worn off.

    The one I've been offered is also a bosch, 55amp, off a G reg mk2 8v. Will this be OK? I noticed that most of the units listed on GSF are 65amp.

    Help! Need to change it this weekend so any info asap would be great.

    aslong as the connections are the same(they do differ from early 8v to late 8v) it will be ok.
