Parts Place

[robcalderwood1 at charter.net (Rob Calderwood)]

I will second that. The parts are usually not oem. I bought door seals and
they were not even close to the real ones, water pump was an asian one and
one of the "new" drive axles I ordered may have been a refurb.

Never again!

The Impex site Ryan turned us on to looks to have oem parts at good prices.
I placed an order for some "dealer only" parts and am waiting for the
shipment. I am hoping they turn out to be a good vendor.
http://www.vwparts.com/. If you know part numbers, they have most things. I
searched for an MKII dash and it came up for $722.50. I thought that was
interesting.
