Thanks Jim,

The nearest VW stealer is 150 miles away. I tried their online 'request a part' form and the email that the form sends bounces. (figures.)

I asked BD and they say NLA.

Searching ebay world-wide finds nothing.

Hence, appealing to a mailing list on the WorldWide Web.

I only NEED one. Two would be nice though.

If unsuccessful here, I'll pick up the phone and try the parts counter in Boise.

Jim
