Yes- first the guy does'nt know how to spell.
What is a Carriolet? Sounds like a road-kill
cruiser. And why not the Golf and Jetta? DOn't
they need power too?

This looks just like a recirculating air blower
found on the Vanagons with the BA or DA-6 Gas
heater.

Then there's this:
ALSO DONT BE FOOLED BY THE PERSON WHO SELLS THE
SAME EXACT KIT FOR 159.00 +20.00 FOR SHIPPING,
ALL THEY ARE DOING IS RIPPING YOU OFF. I SELL
MINE ALL DAY AT 98.00 PLUS 45.00 FOR SHIPPING.

Ninety -Eight dollars for a blower motor?

But then look at the shipping? $45.00? That's
 absurd- that blower can be shipped anywhere in
the US for $8.10 flat rate- it will fit in a flat
-rate box with ample packing.
Even still, shipping should be no more than
$16.00.

The high shipping is the dead-giveaway for ebay
violation fee circumvention- an obvious sign that
the seller is making a profit on shipping, which
is not allowed.
Also not allowed is his mention of a seller
auctioning the same product.

Clearly a snake oil device capable of doing
nothing for your car but wasting money.
