They also sell a supposed 25W 6V bulb to be used for a backup lamp but
it is not even as bright as an 18W bulb... the GE # is stamped right on
the base and it is easy to find the spec.s... CIP claims that it is what
they claim it to be... B.S.!!! They are getting worse and worse.
Wolfsburg West also lists a 25W 6V bulb (I know what GE # it needs to
be) and I bet they carry the CORRECT bulb! I'm glad I'm essentially done
with the resto. of my bug as I'd hate to get what they're offerering
lately.

Oh, and don't ever order their replacement gas pedal... it was so thin
and flimsy that I had to chuck it and refurbish my OEM pedal.

 "My OPO is that you just had extraordinarily bad luck, and that Mr.
Murphy
became fixated on your carb situation. You might try the Pierburg Kafer
from
Aircooled.net once you get this squared away... "

The thing is, if one vendor has this item for $40 less than everyone
else it makes me question where these things are coming from. I'm
almost tempted to think they are selling overhauled units. Play in the
throttle shaft on a NEW carburetor is just completely unacceptable.
Damaged fasteners on a brand new item make me very suspicous about
whether or not it is 'new'. Plus that picture I took of the end of the
throttle shaft, showing that the nut on the end had been removed,
flipped over, and re-installed...on a NEW item? I don't think so.
Something doesn't add up here.
