Try and get a proper VW one. The best ones have the fibre webbing through them to add strength

HI Didgeman

Did you get a new steering ring?  If not I found a proper VW one with the webbing in between layers today in my bits and bobs.

It Was on my buggy for less than 1000 miles before I put a UJ on it earlier this year.

Yours for free if you want it, just PM me your address

Morning Chad if Didgeman has got one already, would you sell it to me as I am looking for one for mine, just not to the buying bits stage will look to do this in one go when I do so save on delivery charges. Nothing like having a bit box of bits turn up.

HI Duncan,

If I hear nothing by next Monday its yours, just need an address to send it too.

(personal message me with your address and I'll stick it in the post Monday if I hear nothing).

Yours for free, just stick a couple of quid in your favourite charity box when you next pass by.
