Genuine VW stainless steel exhaust
« on: 14 May 2012, 23:26 »
I was just wondering if anyone on here knew anything about the following part number 1H6253609Q, which is a genuine VW stainless steel backbox for the mk3 16v. Were these a special dealer option as i never realised you could get OEM stainless steel exhaust parts? Bet they cost a bloody fortune...

I think that VW always used to offer mild and stainless options on exhausts.

Swapped my supersprint for an OEM stainless- the dealer had it in stock for ages and were surprised when they suddenly had the opportunity to get shot of it. It was about £200 iirc
