Rubbish.

Do a search for posts by me and you'll find the part number of the repair kit.

Balls, I can't find my post...

Trust me though... There IS a repair kit for this as I fitted it to my old GTi.

It comes with the rubber seal for outside the car, a small rubber O Ring for inside and a new bolt for inside, all in a nice little plastic bag!

Cost me next to nothing!

This kit would come in very useful. Mine is perished aswell.

When i chammy the car down after washing it, the rubber transfers onto the chammy and surrounding paintwork. Highly annoying. :roll:

I don't keep invoices for low value items...

I remember the part number being posted on UK-MKIVS by a dude from the Bahamas, but the search is all screwed up on there at the moment.
