200 and 300 are used to refer not just to the engine but also the model years.  If yours is a 3.5v8 then that makes it a 200 series if I recall correctly - if it has the old style dash then yes.  Anything for a 200tdi will fit it, apart obviously from engine-related bits.  Most of the 200 and 300 series accessories are also interchangeable.
