    1E is Mk3 Cabriolet.
    1H is Mk3 everything else.

    Not sure what the XO is.

    If they say they'll fit a mk2 or mk3 then they'll fit. All the same.

    After playing with GL Golf, VR6 Golf, GL Vento, VR6 Vento, GL cabby, they do vary quite a bit, Vento/cab are heavy in the butt, VR6 heavy in the front. But yeah like APRR32 said, just double check those front ones. Then again if they have enough adjustment it doesn't really matter, my car is heavier in the front and back, but has Ray's GL's old coilovers in it and can go to 4WD height and Hannah Montana low.
