[Frank's asking because he sent me a photo showing a bundle of beading marked with a single VW part # with color code and the words "10 Stuck." I had told him that this was NOT a set for a complete car, but rather 10 RR fender beadings. A complete car would require 6 different parts of 5 different part numbers.] Because VW sold them as individual parts, not as complete sets for 1 car, and many parts were distributed in quantities greater than 1. While no individuals and few dealerships would ever buy a whole bunch like this, this is the way they would come into the distributors. It's POSSIBLE that large dealers would buy bunches like this, but I doubt it. Russ would know. Personally, I had no idea that this was how this particular part came, but once you see the label it is completely clear. - -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
