MK2 brake Servo/MC upgrade

I've just bought a new 9' servo and 22mm M/C as an upgrade.
Question what do I use as a fluid reservoir? The original reservoir outlets are approx 80mm between centers, new one approx 30mm between centres.
VW Heritage not very helpful.
Will I have to have a remote reservoir? That's something I really don't want to do :(

find out what mc the car is from (guessing mk2 golf gti 16v) and then buy one of those, cant be too expensive. double check the rmc on the servo as my sits on the wonk a little which im going to have to address at some point.

Yeah, to make sure you get the exact one is very difficult! VW Heritage don't keep MK2 golf 16V reservoirs :(
I've had a bit of help from a VW scrapper on ebay Hopefully what he sends will be the correct one!

recently done this upgrade myself, as far as I can see so long as you get a res that has the outlets close together in the photo it should fit (that's what I did anyway, heres a link to the one I bought

A mk2f polo has a res that might be suitable

Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/162834060076
