VW Type III part . West Coast Metric made them at one point. Not sure if still in production. Check VW Sites.

Looks like they have the early, screw on type. Very cool. Thanks!

They are the same a Ford Escort/ Capri (not sure if you have access to these in the USA)
I purchased a pair of strikers with them attached from Burton over here in the U.K.
I know they ship worldwide......

Here's a link to the part Chief mentions.

I was going to contact them to see if they sold the rubber parts separately but found a decent used one for my car.

There was a thread on this last week. They are available from lots of vendors but it sounds like some of the repros don't fit very well.

I ordered a pair of NOS on ebay. Waiting for them to arrive from Latvia to see how well they fit. I'd post a link but they are sold out. Sorry. unsure.gif

So the link Bbrock had was a good one.

https://au.vwheritage.com/311837177a-door-s...r-stop-vw-spare

$7.25 each plus $20 shipping and it took a while to get here but, not bad.
