I've done some searching online and on here but I can only find a nearside front arch skin, not the complete thing. I recently got a complete off side arch direct from VW (at a whopping £149) but the N/S is now obsolete. It's had it in too many spots (seatbelt mount, connection to pillar and door step) to get it patched up so I'd rather replace the whole thing if I can.
Anyone know where to source one?
Where to get a complete N/S front arch?

Re: Where to get a complete N/S front arch?
the skin is the only thing you will get unless you chop one off a scrapper.
Even vw-classicparts.de don't have stock of the 251 809 243 B panel
either chop a scrapper or patch up the one you have with a skin, step repair and other necessary plates
E D I T: Have you tried http://www.vwheritage.com/vwh/VW-Camper ... lateID=vwh" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Though the site lists it they may not necessarily have any in because like Schofields and the inner sills they just bought VW stock and sold them on for a markup
or http://www.customandcommercial.com/prod ... tegory=246" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
which is the same sell-on markup deal as heritage
maybe you could strike it lucky. Fingers crossed for you
