Anyone know of a reasonably priced Mk8 single wheel axle with a 3.73 ratio diff?

When looking at the Mk8 axle, that apparently has an LSD option in the states, it's not that much different from the mk7 to look at it, so stripped the one I've got sitting here to check dimensions etc, so going to stick with the mk7 axle and do some mods Image
