I'm trying to find a used good quality center console door that covers the ashtray and cig. lighter. The cover of the door is Shale. I tried the dealer but they won't sell just the door; I have to buy a complete center console bezel.
Does anyone know where I can get one?
Thanks in advance
I have a 75 convertible and was told the horn button on units without tilt wheels had a squared outside edge that was chromed. The one on my car has a tapered edge that is painted the same color as the column. This is the only color/style that I have seen on all non-tilting columns.

I ordered a new reproduction window crank for my 75 and discovered that it differs slightly from the original, the difference is enough that it won't stay on the regulator shaft. Though it looks the same cosmetically, there is a difference where the handle slides over the regulator shaft. I've...
I want to replace my wiper blade holders (the part that attaches to the arm) with originals but I dont know what they look like. Does any have a photo or know where I can look to see one?
Thanks in advance for your time.
My car runs fine at idle and up to 70 mph (didnt try faster) without any problems if you slowly depress the gas pedal. However if you press too fast it goes for a moment and then cuts out. It will die if you dont back off the gas.
A service tech said it was a fuel starvation problem, maybe a...
The 75 L48 has a new motor and has been running like a top. Less than 10 miles on her but at least 20 hours of running time.
I put ten gallons of fuel in her after setting the timing last week. I turned her around in the driveway and then parked her in the garage. The next day she started and...
I a 1975 Convertible which appears original. I'm haing a problem with the power steering pump. The problem is in trying to check the fluid level. The pump sits under the alternator so the cap/dipstick for the power steering pump wont come on of the pump unless I remove the belt and pivot the...
Will someone please check their side windows and tell me what codes are listed. I have a 1975 convertible and the window coding is DOT 15 M 74.
I've been told that the M74 windows are for coupes and convertibles are M75. I'm having troubles adjusting the windows so I think there might be...
I have a 75 Convertible and need to replace the center console insert. My car has real wood on the doors and the console and I'm told it came that way from the factory. My console insert needs replacing. I have heard from two noted experts that give differing information about which material...
I checked all the archives and couldn't find an answer so I'll give some details and then ask my question. I have a 75 convertible with A/C. I have the Assembly Instruction Manual (AIM) and it shows the turn signal flasher and a buzzer behind the passenger side dash. I have the dash out and...
Does anyone have experience replacing the carpet in the storage doors? I'm working on an original 1975 car. I removed the trim from the three doors after drilling out the eight (two on each edge) circles. I say circles because I don't know if they were made of plastic or if they were resin or...
My tach isn’t working and Ive been told to check it for 12 volts. There are three wires connected to the rear of the tach, black, pink, and brown. The wiring diagram shows the black wire to be ground. The pink wire is a constant 12-volt supply and the brown wire goes to a filter on the manifold...
The time is here to drop the body on the chassis. Does anyone know if the radiator and its support need to be attached to the body or the frame prior to the drop? I have a photo from the factory showing the shroud around the fan but I dont see the radiator or support attached to the frame...
I just finished spraying on the DP50LF sealer. It's raining tomorrow so I'll wait until Saturday to spray on the acrylic laquer primer. With any luck the body will be ready for paint (classic white) by June 26th. Then the body will be married to the chassis on the 28th. We just might be able...
Does anyone know for certain what material was used to make the shroud. Mine is black and gray swirled plastic of some type but I dont know what it is. I've tried numerous adhesives, glues, and epoxy's and nothing seems to adhere to it.
It's time to start painting and assembling the headlamp housing assemblies, however I don't know what color they were from the factory. I've checked the TMIJ guide and it's not listed; I checked other resources to no avail. Does anyone know what the finish was from the factory?
When I took...

Thanks.
Is there anyone out there with an A6 Air Conditioning Compressor that would be willing to help me out? Mine is from an original 1975 car and I'm trying to determine if the coil is within electrical tolerance. I've been told to unplug the connector and use a ohm meter on the two posts. I should...
