All pretty and good, nicely layed out too, with a minor flaw.  It only
covers European listings (thankfully in english).  Can't find any USA only
market listings for parts in certain parts group areas.  This is really
important, especially when figuring out Campmobile/Westfalia stuff, as what
was equipped on USA/Canadian Models.  Another critical area is certain
engine area parts for the Digijet/Digifant for North American market, all is
shown is for Europe, usually not the same application(s).  In my profession,
this is mandatory for my reference, database and cataloging work at
Airhead/VWG.  I'll stick with using my laptop and desktop installed ETKA and
old microfiche files for now, but tune in to the vagcat site when needed.

Thanks for your link Roger
