VW parts re-manufacture for Mk1 Golf

After a lot of time and discussion I have finally got VW Germany interested in re-manufacture of some more Mk1 Golf parts.

In order to make case by case decisions they need some more information from me. I am trying to gather the following:

- Part needed. Please specify all relevant information, but especially year, engine/transmission, model and other details where necessary, ie LHD/RHD, colour, RHS/LHS, etc). Preferably provide the part number.
- Volume. How many would you be interested in?

Clearly they are only going to be interested in those parts that represent a decent margin and volumes are being gathered from the largest markets, so no promises can be made at this stage. The parts will of course be OEM spec, not copy/repro parts and as such will come with VW quality, warranty and price (and fit properly!)

So please specify this info and I will gather together and pass on.

I would be interested in the full complement of rubber window/door seals. Oh, and all hood seals too. I assume the price will be pretty hefty, though?

89 Clipper Cabrio, 1.8, rhd.

will have a think and let you know , i am sure i will have a list.

excellent news though

how about a brand new mk1 car  

You can Woky, in south africa fella

good news, maybe grill trim, all  body panels and touch up paint sets.

Doorcards as they do break away from pins and am sure others have this also, dash as i personally have damanged mine
Pete :wink:

An important thing would be the fuse boxes and also the sockets and crimped connectors…

doors - all body panels in fact

 :dontknow:

Thanks for the info, but please be specific in your requirements. For example door cards and fuseboxes - there are dozens of versions across cabrio/2 door hatch/4 door hatch, year, model, trim colour, etc! It won't help you if '83 2 door GTi black door cards are made if you have a '79 4 door GLS with brown door cards!

'82 GTI fusebox  (Rev. B/C, can't remember the P/N but could get it if needed)  :mrgreen:

probably the earlier GTI fusebox would be popular (this is Rev. A and differs from the later revisions considerably)

GTI Seat bolsters (don't know if there's a difference between early and late?)

Series 2 Hazzard switch

that's all that spring to mind right now, will post up any more if they come to me

GTI Wheel arch trims!

Rear brake compensator!

Fuel tank!

naaa they aint the same the front end is longer and dash  is different

3 door rear quarter panels!

Wings???


Panels generally!

I was thinking as regards to doorcards, blank so you can cover them yourself, it would be easier to be made in both 3 & 5 door without extra cost and can cover everyone, as i for example can remove the leather from my current ones and refit to new blank carding as some of the pin locations are goosed when been removed in the past

Front end the same bud, it's the later bumpers that make it look longer.
They should put back the old mk1 dash in, since upgrading to polo interior, really gives the car a worser look

i spend hours looking through etka,i get a list of part numbers and then order from the dealer,ive got loads of new bits,from suspension to door check straps,
rajan,sre you talking mechanical parts or trim etc? cus like you say theres loads of trim variations and i dont think they will redo all that lot,mechanical parts would seem easier to remake?

chrome trimmed bumpers whould be nice.

Series 2 rear bumper

Window rubbers that accept chrome trim. And chrome door window trims.

Reverse switch, inner and outer sills, blue printed circuit for rear of the clocks and MFA board.
