Check this out.  Sounds like it might be a good deal but don't know how they are curved.

Hiya Bob,

I've not had any sort of experience with Hot-Spark so take that into account as you read the following............

Hot Spark has been panned by quite a number of people, others have found nothing wrong with them.  Apparently, they are Chinese manufacture.  That does not go down well with many.  If you go over to The Samba and search Hot Spark, I'm sure you'll run into comments on these folks.

And here's a Samba ad pointed directly at VW owners............

Bob,
     Also look askance at advertised BRUCK & EMPI distributors. A lot of ads tend to tout "OE Quality" or "German Quality", when fact outdistances the brochure by a fair margin. Far too much hit or miss quality control.
And you really can't go wrong with an Aircooled.net distributor.

Regards
Sean

After reading the problems they are having with the electronic ignition parts on the Samba
it wouldn't pay Me to buy one and have to send it back...

Shame they don't have a good name...
was certainly a good price...

cheers
