It would be better to use the original type. The push rods run through the the oil tubes and have to be remove before you can insert the spring or factory type. That involves removing the valve towers. The originals would also be much cheaper and only require one more step of loosing the heads or taking them off. You can then check the valves.

Also I am not sure if the VW's are the same as the ones that ********'s sells.
