Funny you should say that, as I've been doing a whole heap of research, and well the newer Passats 2001- 2002, have a boot solenoid, and as it's OEM, there shouldn't really be any question of reliability, the only thing I can't really find, is actual info on wiring looms ect, Although, I wouldn't see how it would be difficult to adapt. If you de-wipered I'm sure you could use all the original wiring to connect it up. However will update you, got a mate that has a passat, so I'll be having a look at the positioning and all the rest of it soon. Will keep you updated!
Good stuff :D
