I use the busdepot parts page. It is a quick reference for decent (not dealer) prices. It lists all of your common parts, very easy to scroll through. They also have a printed catalog, great for the bookshelf of glovebox. The thing I've seen with dealers is that their prices vary from dealership to dealership. I've seen differences of 15-20%, from dealers within 100 miles of each other. Another good source of factory parts at a discount is Adirondack Auto Brokers. They can get about anything, the prices are competitive with anyone. I've used them for years for various VW's, good people. They have a very limited website ( www.germanautoparts.com ) , but I get great service when I call. Matt
