Subject:      AC Ducting Support
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


I had my AC duct fall from the ceiling last year when I hit a bump on
the interstate. Scared the hell out of me. I installed aluminum straps
to keep it up there, then learned later VW has a fix out. Recently the
duct fell again. Metal fatigue. I guess the aluminum alloy int the
straps was not good. With the recent discussion on the list, it prompted
me to contact my local VW dealer about it. For me it's a PITA to deal
with the Dealership.


I just called CamelBack and the parts for the fix are coming. Two
support plates and hardware. Total cost $6.00. That sure beats cost the
time I spent building   the straps in the first place. Will post as to
how the re-installation goes.
