VW Link pin question

Hi Guys.
I have to shim a set of VW link pins this weekend but I haven't got the arrangement chart after measurement.
I know they have less shims than a 356 so assume that my chart won't work.
Can anyone help?
Cheers

Ahh yes shims.
Sorry Mark, that's what happens when I get phone calls on a day off
I would forget my knapper if it wasn't attached.

No worries Paul I worked round it in the end now I have a stack of washers
but lower compression , not that you would have noticed that at Silverstone yesterday
I was going with the " Drive it like you stole it " seamed to work
