My original indicator switch had been playing up for nearly a year now so the time came to replace it ,
It's quite a straight forward job , but I get easily irritated so I done it over two sessions
The new unit is a NOS one found on the samba , keeping it original VW
Not much visual difference but so nice to use in comparison to my old flappy one that used to slide round steering column
It the little things [emoji41]

So after a two year hiatus nothing much has happened to this old van , only a Gene Berg shifter and another set of rims

Still got the Pacers
Might sell them or SAs ????

Hope all's well with you
And the bus!
Ok ….. so I’m going to update the thread a bit now .
Having had the van for 17 years now and using it more than ever in the past two years it’s time to address a few issues.
On my way to Bug Jam this year one issue raised its ugly and unwanted head ,
A valve and a piston had an untimely meeting that put pay to the engine !!
