Some information I picked up when I was traveling through No. Cal and I stopped at a VW dealer: The dealer said that Eurospec didn't seem interested in making product improvements, read that improving items necessary to improve the longevity of their conversion. So this dealer wasn't doing solicitation for conversion business. If it came to them they would do it, but otherwise they weren't marketing the product. Just too many hassles.
