You might want to explore that route... otherwise germanautoparts has the correctly mounted part for ~$200 USD. The alternative is to get the one listed below for less and pop rivet it in yourself!
A gentlemen on Audifans obtained a rotor arm for a Volvo from about 1988 - uses exact same hall device - for cdn$50. Removed it and placed it on to mounted bracket with SS pop rivets and it works!<ul><li><a href="http://www.germanautoparts.com/Volkswagen/Passat/EngineElectrical/45/3">http://www.germanautoparts.com/Volkswagen/Passat/EngineElectrical/45/3</a</li></ul>

Also, there is a replacement which is a virtual copy of the CPS for only $13 from Cheng Yang in N.Y. at 801-938-4722 or www.bbautomacao.com.Exact same size,no fitting to do.HTH

it is physically different, however the mounting holes are in the same location, but the vane opening is 2mm further ahead. Since there is a lot of play in how you position the CPS and the electrical characteristics are the same both units should be a suitable replacement.
