You simply cut it off, splice on the VW plug from your old one, and pocket the $80 savings. The two sensors are completely identical other than the plug. >> I have known about this 'generic' Bosch sensor for some time but in the days before I knew about the Bus Depot it took me 3 months of searching to find one less than $50.00. All of you vendors on this list sure make life simpler for us Vanagoneers - Thanks! Sam Bateman Fork Union, VA '87 Vanagon GL |
