Many of the importers we deal with also carry parts for all Volkswagens, or
even all imported cars.  Many VW car parts can be found on our website
(you'll see that the drop-down vehicle menu includes pretty much all VW
models), but we can also get much that isn't there.  Best is to email a
parts request so that we can research pricing and get back to you.  The
discount will be about the same as on our Vanagon parts, and assuming our
distributor has them, we can typically get them in a day or so (or even have
them dropshipped right from the distributor if you're in a rush). If you
have a part number available (i.e from another website) that is a great help
but not absolutely neccessary.  Also if you found a particular price on the
part elsewhere let us know, so if we get quoted too high we can put the
screws on the distributor for a lower price. (I know when I'm getting ripped
off on a Vanagon part, but can't say I know the market value of Jetta parts
offhand.)  Generally, common mechanical parts are easy to get, but body and
interior parts can be less likely, as most of the import distributors don't
carry them.  (We import our Vanagon body parts and rubber directly from
Europe.)
