After a ton of research late last year, I finally latched onto the
interchange to a Distributor Parts Interchange from a Bosch Rep (had
to xerox it).   It fits 85-91 Vanagons and I get $89.06 for it.  Kinda
pricey, but a lot less than for a whole new distributor.

Order my Part Number 025-9086B ('cause there is no VW Number and not
offered separately at Volkswagen).

Cheers!
