Mk1 Windscreen Vents - Need Inserts
« on: 26 September 2003, 12:08 »
On the Mk1, someone thought it would be a good idea to fold the dash covering material into the vent holes and glue em in place.

11 years later the glue has come unstuck!! So the material is blocking the vents, making de-misting the screen a nightmare!

I remember when I first bought the car I had a good browse round the net and saw an enthusiats site which advertised some plastic inserts which stopped the material blocking the holes, but now I can't find the site (i think i found it from a link from a link from a link!)

Does anyone know where I can get these from? I think I remeber them being ?19?

Many Thanks,
Chris.
