Couple of questions; Ordered my happy new chrome badge from Karmann Konnection the weekend (heard they were the best) only to be called by the guy today and told he's sold out and the supplier will not be making any more - bummer. Just wondering where the next best place to go is? I did a...

I've asked the guy if I can go view it (I have no intention of doing so) I suggest we all do the same! :lol:

Reviving this thread cos I need one too! Anyone? Thanks, Matt

the whole lot fitting in the aperature really, just seems too big. It's the plain side, I've just noticed on Machine 7 website they have a new, 'rubber shop' :shock: . It seems pretty cool, but they seem to stock both the early and late bay side window seals as different part numbers. I got...

Hi, Does anyone know if there is a difference between the early and late bay rear side windows? Well, it's the rubbers in particular, I bought a seal for an early bay (OE quality) but it said on the bag 71-79 (my bus is a 70) and it simply doesn't seem to want to fit! Any thoughts?

Well, I went with what you all said, seals arrived today and seem excellent quality, he also threw in a lovely bay window t shirt because I'd spent a fair bit - t shirts great quality too! Can't recommend enough

Hi, Does anyone know where I could find a template for a RHD cab carpet and ideally the arch cover carpets too? I've got some carpet and have the facility to bind the edges but don't have an original mat to work from, any ideas? Thanks Matt

I'm planning on using, pod speakers, I mounted these under the dash back in the days when I had my beetle, sounded not too bad, not sure what the sound will be like in a van though. Here they are...

Thanks Clem, Nice one!

Hi, Just wondering if anyone knows the best place I can get the above? Removed mine recently and one (left) was damaged, do the repro ones come with the rubber trim riveted on or would I need to buy this separately? Thanks Matt

Hi, Just wondering if anyone on here has bought any seals off Notch1500 on ebay? He specifies german OEM seals and was wondering about the quailty? Thanks Matt

2nd dibs on the aerial please :(

Some ebay user has had a VERY lucky day! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140538150933&rvr_id=230230591352&mfe=sidebar" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; :shock: :shock:

Hi, I recently had mine done at: http://www.citypowdercoating.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; sandblasted, powdercoated and laquered four wheels for £120. I'm really happy with the finish although it's pretty shiny! To be expected though I guess. I also needed four new...

It's pictures and weekends like this I despise living in the Midlands!! Although rising sea levels don't bother me one bit!! :lol: Looks like some great places 8)

Hi, Don't want to open a can of worms on this, I'm sure for many it works fine, I think it's not an issue with big engines, just ones with the stock carb and/or cc. Not the dizzy's fault, it just seems to get the blame for the wrong combination. This may help to explain a little better but...

Looks a great bus fella, 8) Just one thing, you sure you want to run a 34 Pict carb with a 009? I'm no expert by any means but when I had my Beetle I had a major flat spot, I'm sure if you do a search much more intelligent people will be able to tell you why. Jus something to think about...

No, although I know the one you mean, never sure if it's a crossover or a late - always parked the wrong way round! Must be hiding it's shame! :lol: I live a bit further on, jus off Chichester drive. My bus is actually with Graham at the mo, getting it back very soon though! Whereabouts are you?

Hi, I also live in Halesowen (near top of Mucklow Hill) - can't be of any real help I'm afraid but can vouch for the work of Graham L and Dave at Midland Early Bay, they've done plenty of top work on my bus! I've also bought parts off KK and Volksmagic and they seem good guys although the VM...

Thanks Clem I'll keep an eye out, They always said you was, 'Mr Westy'! Thought it was just curtains but your wisdom stretches far and wide!!
