I made my own and it functions like the stock one. Optain some strap and a hook simple. _________________ Volkswagen: We tune what we drive.

None in the Samba classifieds currently.
Try emailing/messaging the "major" sellers there... bookooZ, ISPwest, several others... they may have one but haven't bothered to make an ad for such a small part. |

Definitely don't have any at ISP. You'll probably have to bend your own and plasti-dip it. I can help with pics and some measurements if you go that route. _________________ 1963 Notchback - Ruby Red

Bingo. De-burr and then rubber dip it.

Hi all,
Thanks for info on hook. Looked similar to the original hook. I thought I would purchase a couple as they didnt have a drawing with the sizes. Unfortunately when I contacted them they wouldn't ship to the UK. Still on looking |
