Most induction kits will fit it...
The only reason really they make them for different models an engine sizes is to make more money out of ppl...

Believe me, you DO NOT want an induction kit on a 1.2 8v. It will take more power, and sound wont even be all that.

If u want a nice sound, and a tiny bit better performance (better throttle response etc) then keep ur standard air box and drop a Ram Air panel filter in there. Drill 1" holes in the lower side of the air box and run a cold air feed from your grill to the holes.

Pretty decent sound for a 1.2 8v, and u dont lose performance. Best choice.
