The only place you might find a new one would be at a VW dealership, and even then it may be obsolete. I believe that VW only sold the complete assemby as shown in Russ's photos. I believe I posted the part # at the beginning of this thread. I install the brass and spring using a dental tool and a sewing thread tied around the spring, so it can't fly away on me. Once the spring is in place I cut the thread. Since the nylon body does not wear, I've never replaced that part. It just looked like too much work. -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
