I remember seeing a DIY solution once, but I'll be dammed if I can find it again!

Thanks for the tip Kingy - one down two to go !

I think the side cards are impossible to find, I did see some in the USA for $165, luckily I still have 90% of my old ones remaining (for tin top GTI with front oil cooler) so made some up out of millboard - they are difficult to cut but think they will look okay as mostly hidden out of sight.

Found this thread, seems quite useful:

How different are clipper ones to the ones on a tin top?

I bough these recently, a very true copy of the originals: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kuhlerpappe-Satz-VW-Golf-1-GTI-Luftfuhrungspappe-Radiator-Doppelscheinwerfer/113655135808?hash=item1a765fbe40:g:1qkAAOSwgX9cbJvW

Thanks Goldie.
Unfortunately apparently not a fit for my 1991 Clipper.

The top card and passengers side cards will fit but the drivers side card has a big cut out as that's where the air feed oil cooler sits in tin top cars, cabriolets have a water feed oil cooler so has a bigger card..

About 3/4 way in my project thread you can see the cards needed, these are original VW items which I bought from GCP (company no longer trading) about 10 years ago.
