Sorry Chris, I wasn't trying to be trite.  It just seems that whatever gets
posted on this list is destined for a contrary response.  I'd be willing to
bet that a post describing a beautiful blue sky would get at least one reply
from someone correcting them as to the actual color of the sky.

Happy, happy, joy, joy...

Jeff

  zing!!  that smarted.. =<O

i was just curious..   as im sure some others were, too...

anyway for those who were curious as well, the part number above is the
window switch for the mk2 golf/jetta  '85-'92.   as jeff stated, the switch
is the
same for the vanagon, but lacks the wiring harness on the back, so you need
to
be handy with the soldering iron.   they are $30 ea new from the dealer.. so
$14 is a good price if you dont mind soldering..

that being said, i have a few good used ones from quantums and vanagons
(quantums and vanagons use the exact same switches, both with wiring
harnesses) for
those of you who dont feel like soldering..
