• No problem Vince, without your help and the other awesome members on here, my car would be sitting in the driveway. But the problem is you are an enabler to my growing VW addiction
  
  Thanks and keep up the great how-tos!!!!
  
  Interesting note--- The starter is much quieter, it barely sounds like it is turning, but it starts it right up.
  
  Of course that might be due to the old starter being so loud or the new starter bushing I installed.

• Sweet! I never did go get one, now that there is no snow maybe I should.

• I was able to get mine for $25 plus shipping of $11 or $12. Plus it was in great shape. Not sure if it still has the plastic gears inside like all of my other ones.
