Why in the heck does VW they bother installing them into US bound
vehicles, when probably no one would ever use them? ( Or for that matter
probably never figure out what in the heck it does----) >>

The weekender models have a frig under one of the rear facing seats.  The
plug on the frig is a European style and the socket is located on the back of
the driver's seat base.  The socket they use makes a better connection than
our cigarette lighters do.  How many of you have to fidget with your cell
phone charger cord to keep a good connection in your lighter outlet?  Most of
the European accessories have a plug that will work in either the cig. outlet
or the european style.  You just twist off a red cap on the end and it fits
the euro sockets.  btw, I sell these plugs as well.

btw, I just got back last night from picking up a really nice '93 Weekender
from a dealer in St Paul.  I flew up and drove it home.  A customer of mine
traded it in on a new one and let me know about it.
