Your vw dealers is on crack
Lol! I wish you were right, but I was looking at the screen too! When he put in the original number it says it's been superseded & spits out three possibilities, but two just say "valance".
only anni valances come with cut outs and non cut outs.
cut out was on the normal anni and non cut out on the gtitdi which i believe was the diesel anni?
You may be correct (& quite probably are

), but it doesn't help when we have two options as possible alternatives to the old part number!!!
Basically if we guess & get it wrong I'm stuck with a standard valance as body parts are none returnable. Hence my original question: does anyone know the new part number???
