I remember seeing some rivet type things for securing the bumper to the arch, any idea where i can get some from? Had a look on the bay but cant find anything.
The black plastic push in things? if so vw do them. i bought four other year.
Do they? Sweet, will pop down and see them.
You can use ones from a mk2 golf. they are the same but black metal instead of plastic, stainless too. saved about 40 from my golf for when i take the arches of polo
think chubnut on ebay sells genuine ones for about £8 for 40 which will do the car and a few spare :)

I think you are talking about actual black rivets? I got them from VW too.
Sorry, ignore my post. wrong rivets
I just picked up the plastic ones for 19p each.
:-) probably the cheapest thing VW sell to fit on a G40.

Probably the only thing that VW sell for the G40 that isnt obsolete!
I think the copper nuts are cheaper.
The only thing i have not been able to get hold of from VW was TCA's.
Always had top mounts, front windscreens, gaskets etc. Except i hear the head gasket is no longer available. TPS always the best place to go.

Really!? nearly everything i try to get went obsolete
Clutch
ecu relay
PCV dome (had to get from vw heritage for £45! and a 6 waiting list!)
rocker cover gasket
sump gasket
charger belts
and loads more!
the only things i can ever get is a service kit and the blue temp sensor!
lol, maybe im phoning vauxhall or something :P
They must of gone obsolete last year sometime as i got nearly all you listed from them.
Dont need a sump gasket, just use instant gasket or similar. Thats what most cars these days use anyway now.
Charger belts pete sells
Clutch, always worth getting a better one incase for power increase.
