See the hose diagram with OE VW Part Numbers on my website:

http://www.oldvolkshome.com/121wb5.html
for the heater hoses

OR

http://www.oldvolkshome.com/121wbndx.html
for an index to all of the hose diagrams I have on my site, broken down by
year models 83.5-85, 86-91 2wd and Syncro Models

The diagrams are taken from the VW Quick Reference Book, which apparently
your dealer (and a lot of others I s'pose) don't have sitting next to their
parts film machine.  Either that or they're too lazy to find the book.  The
parts film on hoses is woefully inadequate and can be very hard to decipher.
