I cant post pictures so if you go to another thread called rack and pinion retrofit you'll see the pictures that vwbao uploaded and where it's obvius that they are identical. The only aspect that I hadn't time to check is their ratio, I suspect that the pAssat has more turns from side to side just to easy things because of the front placed engine and gearbox

Thanks for the clarification! I actually have a 4000S Audi sitting in front of my house currently!
