I thought I would check the Vetus Latina manuscripts (a helpful list can be found here) to see what they actually say it when it comes to the Johannine Comma. I should point out that while these manuscripts have been characterized by someone as Old Latin manuscripts and given a "VL" designation, all of these manuscripts are later than Jerome's translation. I am not sure whether anyone has checked/verified whether the text is in fact Vetus Latina, either in general or specifically for the text of 1 John. It is always possible that these manuscripts have been characterized based on having at least one section that is VL, or that they have been mischaracterized. As this is a research-intensive post, it is quite possible that it will be updated from time to time, possibly without formally identifying each update. The initial version of the article covered: VL 6, 7, 51, 54, and 61, of which VL 7, 51, and 61 are witnesses against the JC.
One of the largest and most expensive Bibles ever produced is Codex Gigans, a 13th century manuscript produced in area that is now part of the Czech Republic. It is part of the "Vetus Latina" family and is referred to by the manuscript designation, "VL 51 (gig)." It does not only include Biblical texts but also Isidore of Seville's Etymologies, among other things.
At 1 John 5:7-8, the manuscript has this:
