I replaced mine last year... found VW dealer wanted $170, so I decided to go the generic route. I went to NAPA and found they could get the actual Bosch part for about $110, but wasn't in stock. I wound up getting the right part (no splicing, heat shield fits) for around $90 from Vee Parts in National City, CA. I doubt I'll go back to the dealer again for anything, unless I need another one of those $40 cigarette lighters... Dan Fuller '90 Carat '63 Bug Ragtop '95 BMW 318IC
