Body part replacement

Post by ljmlaw »

Hey I need to replace the body panel below rear window above the engine on the inside. Does anyone know if they make an after market replacement part for this. Or will I have to get it from the salvage yard.

Can you weld? Well?

If no to either, farm it out. Shop. buddy with some skill, neighbor who'll do it for beer, etc...

Here's a link to the panel on Wolfsburg West:

A little pricey but it is a pretty big piece of metal!

jmartini, Yes I need that panel but it does not include the part below the window. I think I will just have to find an old VW and get that part from it. Thanks for the help.
