 there is the possibility there is a source closer to the US.

 Is this new price accurate?  It seems much to good to be true. You couldn't
 buy the grille alone over here for that price. So I'm a bit skeptical.

as far as i know - VWSA is the only source for these quad round driving light
grilles.  there were a few aftermarket ones floating around - i have seen a
local Vanagon w/ a quad round setup by the French lighting company Marchal,
but these are NLA.

as far as accuracy of the new prices quoted by Renier - i also thought they
were too good to be true, since the last quotes i got from a SA listmember in
January were almost twice what Renier just quoted. (and he thought $51 for a
brand new grille, and $22 for two inner driving lights was expensive????
geez...the US dollar *MUST* be really good against the South African Rand...
;<)

Renier - are you ~sure~ you got the part #'s right?
