wtf is that  :shocked:
Part number unknown on ETKA as well so no help there!  I never saw anything like that when I took my dash out so doubt its an important bit.  Any more pics from other angles?

is it some strange special tool that only main dealers have access to (hence the VAG p/n) that has been resting there for years? Having said that, I work on VWs every day and can't think of a possible use for it on a car. Plenty of other places to use it, yes and maybe even in a car, but never to repair one. Strange.

I think its an early mk2 flower holder. Like the ones you get in new beetles. However all the mk2 origional owners had the sense to throw them away the istant they left the forecourt. Stupid gimiks!

Yes it does, but this funnel thing isnt anything to do with the sunroof is it....

nah nothing to do with the sunroof.  I think Ben got it with the MK2 flower holder idea, seems the most logical use for such an odd thing.
