URGENT HELP REQUIRED!!
« on: June 08, 2009, 08:48:39 pm »
ok so i was cleaning my car today and tried to clean the A/C vents with my finger and look what happened!



Oops! anyway i spent an hour trying to get the tiny plastic bit in so the vents move in tandem but no luck and they flap like birds! So I was wondering if any of you nice gentlement could look on ETKA and find a part number and price for me, I've got 2mo off so will have to pick up a new one!

Thanks everyone and let that me a lesson to you dont tinker with the a/c vents!

PS Its the right hand side (drivers side)

Try the breakers yards mate. And as for cleaning vents just use a soft clean paint brush. :happy2: :innocent:.

im still without a vent and Vw quoted £29 for the whole part i only need the front but what can you do, anyway there is only one auto salvage place in loughborough and theyre useless so I was wondering if anyone knew any breakers in leicestershire where I'm likely to get hold of this dam part that I need!

Cheers
