Patrick,
Should you ever have the urge to do another swap, please have a look at
Kennedy's offerings. I have purchased several kits from them and always
received the highest quality parts, and coming from VW specialists,
everything fit properly and worked well together. They might be a bit
more expensive, but it proves the old saw: "Ya' get what ya' pay for".
Hope you get everything ironed out and have good luck with the rest of
your project.
Larry
