Just received my 'Alignment tool for door hinges and A-pillar' from Mika, clearly a quality piece of engineering.
I ordered some more parts for the '59 from within Australia at the same time, Mika's part arrived within the week from Finland and I'm still waiting on my parts to be posted from within my own state.
From reading the previous pages I'm just glad I found his site on the Thesamba!
Thanks again Mika! |

Hi Mika, I received my Deluxe Zwitter Running Boards yesterday and they look great! It took less than one week for delivery from Finland to Texas in December, Wow! I was particularly attracted to your Running Boards because I know from previous purchases that you do things exact to original specifications.
On your running boards, the angles at the front and rear match perfectly like original to where they join the fenders. I bought a set from a major California vendor, that would not be useable without some cutting/welding modification of the ends to fit the fenders.
Thanks again for your excellent products. It is appreciated by folks wanting correct body restoration.

I will continue to do business with him.

Stellar parts from Finland. Super service and great communication. Mika is a great person and I wish I could live next door to this super talented man. Parts like NOS German that could have been laying in a warehouse since the 1950's. Perfect fit and finish with fair and fast shipping to the USA.
Don't hesitate to buy from him if your looking for OEM quality proper fitting repair parts for rare beetles.  |

Buy with complete confidence !
I recently bought Mika’s Zwitter running boards, mats and trim clips for my car to replace my crusty originals.
Flawless boards. Perfect in fit and finish and details to the originals
Great packaging and communication. Super International transaction (Finland to Canada) no problems
Thanks Mika !!

I just received my latest delivery from Mika, one of his Oil filler cap/breathers with the small head. It looks great! Mika's parts are all top quality and true to the originals.
I'm constantly finding new things in his offering and already have another order on the way. 
Thanks Mika,
Mark

Mika is in all respects, a great person to work with. I've ordered from him 6 or 7 times and have always been extremely satisfied. Mika offers product that mirrors the quality and design of the original. I'm always coming back to Vitanen after others don't quite match up. The parts Mika offers are the best you can buy and shipping is fast.
