Default compatible shocks?

A friend of a friend just upgraded the shocks on his 2002 GTI, and is
looking to donate the oem shocks. I don't know yet if they're front or
rear. Is there any chance of them fitting on my '96 GTI? I think mine have
been getting rougher, after 134k miles. I think the newer ones only have
30k or so on them, which has got to be better, I assume. Any knowledgeable
persons answer this? Thanks!

Matty

mk4 gti to mk3 gti = No match
mk4 cabrio MIGHT fit since the "mk4" cabrio is actually a mk3 cabrio
with mk4 looks.
