I should think at a guesstimate I am pretty sure they are the same, so yes but am not certain.

Not sure bout the washer bottle bit, but the airbox is the same apart from the RS500 one, a seriously shit design at that, I have the flow data!!.

The Mk1 did not have a washer bottle like the Mk2 does, I.E mounted underneath behind the wing, rather it has a square bottle on the opposite side of the bay mounted to the inner wing so this won't pose a problem.
