Title: finding parts/listings
Post by: air-cooled or diesel on May 07, 2014, 08:00:59 am: what I don't see, and would like to see is a sticky on parts, etc. I mean for run-of-the-mill parts I can start out with rock auto(usually I don't), they have some parts, some are good, then I can go to autohauz, then maybe parts place, there are also some other listings I can find for parts and more.
I have seen some posts with listings for businesses, but they have disappeared,
so im looking for a couple of obscure parts for my mk2.
pt#: 191121093a also;068130442a & 068130431a. the 1st is the plastic bracket for upper radiator hose, the 2nd (2)are injection rubber hold down/anti-rattle, 1+2that go into the clamps we all know, but not including the whole clamp, just the rubber, also; for fuel line from fuel filter to inlet of injection pump that adaptor that goes between fuel line and inj pump inlet.

getvwparts.com might be quicker for him in philly.

prices are about the same, just an east-coast dealer instead of a west-coast dealer.

busdepot also has some obscure stuff.

They have a website now http://www.mk1autohaus.com/ (http://www.mk1autohaus.com/) with the same things but for some reason I can't find a listing for mk2 parts on their website even though they have quite a few parts for the mk2 Golf/Jetta, Scirocco, Corrado, etc.
