Didn't Wiechers make one?
Look here:

On the Mk4, but they make one for the 5 too.

Uhm... I don't really know the conversion rate! Can't remember it, I know Polo2K knows, or your local newspaper should have a table stating all rates.
You're right about the prices though, the cheap one is steel, the expensive one is aluminium.

ok heres a rough conversion
1euro=£0.62
10euro=£6.25
£30=50euro
£50=80 euro
etc but if you want to do it fast and easy look on your speedo if its a dual unit
50mph=80kmph
50quid=80 euro approx
take all this with a pintch of salt though as its always changing and what not
also 1euro is roughly $1usd
sorry for whiting the word euro each time but when i put in the symbol i get a load of code:
(ctrl+alt+4)€ see!

Don't think I'm of much use...
Write them a mail in English, perhaps they'll understand!

You're right though! They are good for passive safety. Hope it's never needed...
Good luck.
