Okay,

The moment you've all been waiting for, the list of goodies I brought back for sale. I have limited supply on all these at the moment, but I can get as many more of EVERYTHING as needed.

These items are available to anyone, even those who have been flaming me recently, no hard feelings! ;)

Please email me for ordering instructions or questions.

Thank you

James

All these are on hand:

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Quad Grilles w/ Lights $195

</bigger></color>This includes JUST the inside driving lights. The lights are OEM with full adjusting plates. I can get either the lights or the Grille without the other. (I didn't get any of the VW emblems for the grilles because the one's on your old grille should fit. If not, VW or junkyard should have the right part).

I'm also not positive that that will be the final price, I've made some assuptions on the cost of the box and shipping fees. I hope that will be the price <color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param>delivered</color>! Certainly, for anyone who could fetch it in person.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Microbus Badges $13.95

"VolskieBus" Front Stickers $12.95

"VolksieBus" Rear Stickers $12.95

</bigger></color>(front stickers are more wider than rear. The printing is the same. About 2 feet long,)

These are very nice. But I only could get 4 of each, I bought out the dealer! Some are spoken for, however, but I can get as many more as is needed.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Cup Holders in Gray $12.95

</bigger></color> These are your standard issue VW cup holders. I have no idea what they cost here, but I've never seen them in gray before, so I bought 6. Will go nicely with the gray 87-up Westy interiors. BTW, these were imported from Germany, so they weren't really cheap.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>VR6 Badges $12.95

</bigger></color>I really bought these for the Corrado list, but I figured I'd offer them here too. I only have 4. They're a different type of lettering than our VR6 cars, but a freind reports that it may be the same as on the new VR6 EVs.

<bold><color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger><bigger>These next parts are what I can get, but don't have "in stock". I can have them as soon as next week!

</bigger></bigger></color></bold>Some prices are approximate because I don't have the final tally on shipping from SA. But the prices are VERY close and do take into account shipping from SA, but not from me to you.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>LOWER GRILLE $100

</bigger></color>This grille is cool looking. goes from R turn signal to L, and wraps around each. A very unique look.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Golf Engine-to-Vanagon adapter plates $175 (aprx)

</bigger></color>These are VERY cool plates available in Steel or Aluminum. (Steel is heavier, so will cost more to ship from SA). They allow for mounting the Golf engine at either 0,15, or 50°(diesel), depending on YOUR inclination! ;)

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param>Flywheels For Golf conversion.

</color>Will allow stock clutch and starter to be used I can get but this is problematic. They're HEAVY, and expensive to ship, though not that bad, but my supplier wants exchange flywheels, and that drives up all the prices. I'm working on a solution. I think I can figure a way to do it for <color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param>$150</color>, but I'm not sure yet.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Audi Bellhousings $175 (aprx).

</bigger></color>People still want 'em, and I can get 'em. But remember, you need to have the flywheel and clutch made for the conversion to do it right. See below.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Audi Conversion parts Package $350 (apx)

</bigger></color>Audi Flywheel

Clutch Plate

Clutch cover

bearing.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Audi factory Exhaust parts $350 (apx)

</bigger></color>Exhaust pipes

1st stage muffler

2nd stage muffler

(They don't have Cats over there, so you'll have to figure out how to adapt one yourself)

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Audi Exhaust Manifold $200 (apx</bigger>)

</color>There are 2 avaiable one which splits it from 2 into 1 (better). And one that's 4 into 1. But I dont' think you need either. US Audis should come with one that works.

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param><bigger>Factory rear deck riser $250 (apx)

</bigger></color>This is a really neat carpet covered rear deck, looks and is factory. This includes a METAL engine compartment cover which is about twice the size of the ones on the US models. I guess you may have to cut the original eng cover hole larger to get full benefit.

Other Parts.

I can get:

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param>HD springs for about $45</color> apiece, but they're heavy, and I don't know the price for shipping yet. I got a set for myself, and when they say HD they MEAN IT!

<color><param>0000,0000,FFFF</param>Mud flaps. About $100</color> for the set of 4 really cool molded stiff plastic. Blend in with the bumper lines on the later bumpers. Sort of like the stone gard on the left front wheels on US Westies to protect the propane tank.

All kinds of cool badges. CitiGolf (a rabbit!), Jetta, Golf.

And maybe 15" wheels, both steel or alloy
