If I find ones that are yellow, bright blue, red, or any fluorescent color those get saved in a different pile. The OE ones were F & S and had the VW part # stamped on them. If they're not too rusty you may still be able to read it. Once you see a few you know what they look like. They're also likely to be the only ones that are both old AND still damping in both directions. ;-) - Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
