Need help finding a part....

Hello everyone, I've removed the anti roll bar from my 1980 T25, the bar is in good condition, the bushes will need to be replaced no worries there but the D shaped clamp which holds the anti roll bar on one side is badly corroded and has a large rust hole in it. I've looked at all the usual places ...

Re: speedo clicking now not working

Thanks for your advice. I replaced both the speedo cable and centre cap as they were both worn. My speedometer now works properly :) However having replaced the centre cap I have realised that it is meant to be for the T2 as it protrudes further out so now I can't put my hub cap back on that wheel d...

Re: Bumper bolt cap cover

I have the same problem, I was considering buying the 8 pack of white ones JK sell for £4.50 and then spraying them black. But I'm pretty sure that wouldn't look as good.

I suppose I'll have to have a hunt around at some VW Shows

Re: Electrical Hook-up under camper ?

Re: Rolling Road

What engine? is it standard or modified? a jolly good service and set up should help..... a rolling road session will be a costly way to diagnose a problem that may not be fixable by them or a simple fix a service and set up item by a knowledgable mechanic would have cured.... Its a 1980 2ltr AC, i...

Re: Bed: Top Bunk

My hightop is a 1981 but I guess that the bunks would be pretty similar. The extra board is just a piece of 25mm plyboard with a small strip of wood either end to prevent it slipping off the rails. It has a 2inch thick mattress of foam which is cloth covered. Its about 2ft wide but not exactly sure...
