Chris -

Actually the correct Bosch/VW Year/Vin Breaks are as follows:

1980
Manual Trans = SR87X
Auto Trans = SR17X

1981
Manual Trans To Vin 25-B-093610 = SR87X
Manual Trans Fr Vin 25-B-093611 = SR19X
  Note:  SR19X has been superseded to SR401X
Auto Trans = SR17X

1982
Manual Trans = SR19X
Auto Trans To Vin 25-C-002906 = SR17X
Auto Trans Fr Vin 25-C-002907 = SR18X
  Note:  SR18X has been superseded to SR25X
