This is just the "garden variety" 8x12mm threaded bolt with a 13mm Hex. Also sold by VW #s N0102374, N0102375 by other VW related outfits, but could probably be gotten at the good ole FLAPS. Original wasn't stainless, but might be a good idea IF you can find it. Don't have a groove cut into mine, but I guess it would help in the bleeding. Hasn't been an issue with me. -- Jim Thompson 84 GL 1.9 "Gloria" 84 Westfalia 2.1 "Ole Putt" 72 411 Station Wagon "Pug" oldvolkshome@gmail.com http://www.oldvolkshome.com jim@airheadparts.com *********************************** On Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 4:40 PM, azsun99 <azsun99@earthlink.net> wrote: > For a '90 Westy.
