I assume this was easier to make the injection mold. The Bosch ones have the Bosch Magneto logo molded into them and have the Bosch 10 digit part # too. If they were purchased thru VW they will also have the VW #. If your's don't have any of this then it is possible that they are this counterfeit style, which I have little respect for. I hope you don't have those, because if you do, I think you should replace all of them. Does the receipt give a brand, part #, or price? - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
