When you own a vehicle not officially imported to your location, you
need to learn how to order with the corresponding part number. Unless
you are willing to make these sort of compromises, you have no
business owning a graymarket import.

There are VW dealers with cooperative parts managers such as Rennie
Wible at Santa monica VW. I've gotten non-parts from him several times
before. Same can be said of our list vendors. You have to do some
homework if you want to play with the big boys.
