Thanks in advance for your assistance!

I can't find a single new source for it. If you sent that post as a message to the usual bus dismantlers, I bet you'd get a quick response.

- Interstate VW (Jim and Diane)
- TheBusCo (Ken)
- Busted Bus (Chris)
- Blair and Sons (Jan)

All of them are receiving new cars still, I bet at least one of them has what you need.

Do you know the length of the cable? There's a 939mm cable from a Vanagon, 251 265 473 A. Alternately, you could take one of the longer bus cables, (L or R, doesn't matter,) and cut it in place. I forget what the ends of your 2A cable looks like, but barrel nuts are handy…

used only or NOS if you look really hard and turn rocks for a couple years.

1976 and later is 211 711 605F
2515mm
probably Gemo made them.

look at the date: https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=202806&start=0

Just a guess but you can still get one new for about $70 USD https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.de/en/heizklappenzug-d0ae4d.html

I also seem to recall that one is a PITA to work on.
