Subject:cool idea for those adding the upper steering cover w/ switch hole...
Date:Wed, 10 Aug 2005 20:45:28 EDT

for those adding the vanagon OEM upper steering column cover w/ switch hole -
as to Robert K.'s reminder, the switches that work in that hole are VW A1
switches.

in other words, the only switches that will work in that hole are from the
following A1 vw's:
-'76-'88 scirocco
- '80-'93 rabbit convertible/ cabriolet
-81-84 jetta 1

switches from a rabbit sedan wont work. (even tho rabbit is a A1 and similar
to the rabbit conv./cabriolet, the rabbit sedan's dash instrumentation is
totally different from the convertibles)

the heated seat switch for the vanagon, is the same heated seat switch as a
'93 cabriolet collectors edition. good luck finding one of those..

there is an optional foglight switch for the above A1 vw's, the part number
is:
ZVW123261A
which fits right in the vanagon column cover hole, as well as the A1 hazard,
and rear defroster switches, which also fit in the vanagon column cover hole.

technically you can use a A1 rear def. switch as a foglight switch as well.

hope this helps..
