In the end I never used the MK I servo. Managed to get hold of an iX/E32 tandem servo with m/c. The brakes are fantastic now!

Alta vista translation of "bremse servo" does not seem to throw up any hits on Ebay.de
brake servo = bremskraftverstärker

This is the servo i used,it's off a porsche 944,dont know if it's the same as a golf's or not,anyway it's a snug fit but works well,original m/c fits straight on with only minor modification at the pedal end which was to extend the thread a little further and chop some length off.
