John,
    Photo copy the Vanagon wiring and the Golf wiring.   Cut and paste
the two until
you have connected each wire to the engine.   This is the best part of
using this
VW engine in a Vanagon, that everything is compatable.   Once you have a
complete
wiring diagram again, you need to copy it again.  Use your new copy and
start wiring.
   Highlight ever wire that is completed.  You will find some of the
existing wiring
harnesses are compatable with what you need to wire. Some will be to
short and
you will just be using the connector pig tail.  Yuo picked a good choice
of engines.
If you need any other help let me know.
                                                       Eric

Also, does anyone have a write-up of what each pin is for on the Digifant II ecu connector? Before it'll run I'll need to plug everything back in!
