OK now settle down, I'm not talking about the type you're probably thinking.

I'm looking for sources for some of the odd ball rubber associated with the AS system, and in particular for a Ghia.  Like the double grommet for the hydraulic/vacuum hoses that goes through the engine compartment fire wall - there are two, different sizes IIRC.  Also the grommet at the base of the ATF bottle where it penetrates the rear apron.  Anyone have pics and/or dimensions?

The usual VW sources here in the US - WCM, CIP1, etc. are stretched to carry these kinds of parts.

Thanks all,
Larry

Hiya Achilles,

If I had to go looking for those sort of parts I'd be focusing on salvage yards.  To my knowledge the only exclusively AutoStick rubber part manufactured as an aftermarket part was the brake pedal pad.  And WCM discontinued that a few years ago (although I think somebody else is repopping it now).  You might want to try an online salvage yard like Way Out down in Arkansas.
