I posted in a thread (click below for the context)
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=790319
really what started it was this post:
https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?p=10203924#10203924
basically the point was...I was going to have a stroke because of the refusal to just fix an issue right after spending all the time and money to get that far.

LOL β that reminds me of an interview I had at the Greenwood Car Show, years ago. He looked over my 1100lb. buggy with no bumpers, no roll bar, and no seat belts. He asked, βWhatβs your thoughts about safety?β I looked at him and replied, βItβs a one accident car, you wonβt get an opportunity to screw up again.β
