LADIES AND GENTLEMEN
With egg on my face, I am glad to say I am back.
When I departed, there was a miscommunication and I thought I was being told I was no longer allowed to post. When in fact I was being told I was no longer allowed to solicit sales.
Oops, Color me embarassed.
But after clearing up the miscommunication, I am hoping we can get back into the swing of things. I had great fun helping out here.
BUT......
There are some ground rules. They are the same rules that were instated when my original thread was created.
I have been authorized to help all PassatWorld members with Part Numbers, List Price (This is true MSRP list, not inflated list), and on occasion, ETKA illustrations.
Because I am not currently an advertiser I can not solicit sales or offer discounts.
Second, If you want European parts numbers, I can help with that because ETKA allows us to view the European catalog. However, there are no dealers outside of europe that can order the parts because of legality issues. There are vendors that buy them and get them shipped overseas, but I am not one of them.
Third, It is VERY difficult for me to assist with upgrades because Vw does not tell us what all is required to put a Multi Function Steering Wheel in a car that didn't come with one. I expect there are DIY's here. You can find your parts list there then ask. Then I am able to help.
So, With those out of the way, If you have any questions for a Vw parts guy and don't want travel to a dealership just to ask, Here is your opportunity.
Edit: While I may be able to quote part numbers for European parts, I can not quote prices. Vw does not supply us with euro parts prices because we are technically not supposed to be ordering them.
Also, Lets keep all parts requests in the thread that way everyone can benefit from the knowledge. You never know, we may both be inadvertantly helping someone.
