US spec parts, what do you want/need?
« on: 16 April 2013, 18:43 »
Today at work we had some American customers in, and I got chatting to one of them about vws, he couldn't believe how much people pay for us spec parts over here, he said that he had just scrapped a set of us mk3 bumpers! Now they send us containers form the us for our work, so he said he wouldn't mind putting some parts for me In There  :evil:, so what would sell over here? For all mks?

I'd like to have the centre armrest/cubby hole thing between the front seats and a boot release switch. Is this achievable?

100% this. I'd probably kill a small animal for a US rear.
