I think that on the first clutch cable I ever tried to replace, I tried to do it thru that access hatch and was completely stymied. I ended up taking the pedal cluster out and that's the way I've done it ever since. That first car was a 68, so maybe the access hatch was useful on earlier cars, but I'm pretty sure it isn't, at least for the clutch cable, from 68-on. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
