Yeah, sounds right. When I did the 1.6L to 1.8T conversion on my golf, the gear knobs were definitely different. Had to use the one from the GTI, 1.6L definitely didn't fit anymore.
So I've done a little bit of research and in the uk foruns someone mentions that GTI and r32 gear knobs don't fit 1.6's?? *
