scrapyard, or look in PVW magazine at the back for mailorder VW dismantlers

RadiCool VW are very reasonably priced

Is the digifant one any different to the k-jet one?
I have a couple of Mk2 k-jet ones, one is good, the other is cracked. I could take photo's tomorrow.

show me the photos and ill tell you rich !!!

i thought that only the early ones had the round fitting and the later ones had the rectangular fitting with 6 bolts

plus where the manifold bolts onto the head they are either straight or diagonal bolts roughtly like this--->   IIII   or /\/\/\/\

it'll make more sense when you see them!!!

Ok, this is the good one of the two. Not actually sure where the cracked one has gone, but I doubt you want that one anyway. Know what you mean about the bolt pattern, this one as you can see is straight.

Note that in the second picture, bottom right hand corner, the stud has come out. The thread, however, looks perfectly OK.
Let me know if you want more pics or are interested.
