Hi,

Does anyone have a spare one they are willing to sell or part with??

I am after one for my GTi, and have been told they are like rocking horse s*i@ to get hold of!!

Please let me know if you have one to sell and how much you would like!

Many thanks

Thanks for your replies guys!

VAG Parts dont sell them anymore....apparently they stopped stocking them 18 months ago,when the German Army stopped ordering them!!!

I am after a genuine VW one rather than a cheaper imitation from ebay. I checked the link from Tim_GTi, and the one being sold on here has allready gone!!

Keep the advice coming guys!!

Many thanks.

Yep thats correct.

I wouldn't stress if you can't find one, just spray your existing one, applying think coats of laquer and ensure your prime well and it'll be fine

breakers yards would be a good place to look as they arent in production anymore
