An SR69X is a rebuilt starter for a 76-80 Rabbit, Jetta, or Scirocco.
I looked at the manuals for those cars and was surprised to see that,
yes, it looks quite a bit like ours, but you can be sure that if they
would actually interchange Bosch would have lumped them together with
a single rebuild designation.
There are many ways in which they could be slightly different,
mounting bolt pattern, bolt size, pinion gear size, pinion gear
insertion distance, and direction of rotation are just a few of the
possibilities.
Can't you find someone who might be willing to just look at your
brushes and possibly replace them? Almost every town has someone who
can do this work.
