What New Items Would You Like To See...
« on: April 05, 2004, 04:13:46 PM »
Spring is well underway and we are placing more and more orders from our supliers. We would like to hear from you as what you would like to see us carry? What parts would you like to be able to see here that we do not already carry?
What about you Bus guys?  More suspension parts for lowering? swaybars,spindles?

Let's hear from the masses.

No wise cracks, lets keep this one on topic!

metric / imperial adapters for line locks. bus to bug stub axels and flanges.  racing legal roll bars. self dimming rear view miror.
  Maybe a line on these parts instead of actually in stock.

Line lock adapters are in stock, The stubs and flanges are available...The mirror is another thing.
Good ideas, keep them all coming. Shifters will be on the next order.

Saturday \"how-to\" sessions like at home depot so the kids can come in and learn how to repack bearings!

Oh crap, no wise cracks right.  :blink:

do you guys sell bilstien shocks, or konis?

there are probably a few guys out there with super beetles and stuff that might want these type of parts.

just a thought.  I don't know if you get phone calls for this stuff or not, but I think that the German look will be popular in the future

How bout more vintage specialized stuff? Like early bug products and wolfsburg west window rubber...
Us early bug guys are feeling left out :P  
If more power is better. Then too much is just enough.
Why do it once when you can do it thrice?

Good Call Hans - I was also thinking wiring harnesses, maybe even on of those simple ones with GM color codes and chip type fuses.

that would go perfectly with the chromed cow skull i'm going to mount on the hood. and my glass running boards filled w/ goldfish.

i second the vote for ocean street vids. and bug me vids. (unless you allready have those). man it's been awhile since i've been to airspeed. way to support local business silas. [_[ doh!

I like the wire harness idea, that would be cool. I have to potentially rewire my entire beetle and would rather not if I did not have to, as I am finding that I can be rather lazy. There I said are you satisfied.

i bought my empi oil filter mount there and it leaked like a sieve.  No more empi for me.  How about some CB perf goodies.  I agree with James, AN stuff, Pre tapped valve covers, etc.. i vote NO on EMPI!

We can get the Hot rod GM style wiring kit, I have a old style one in the 59 and it works great. We can get the new ones with the small fuse box with all the wiring. Very cool, My Brother just bought one for his 50 ford.

The Bug me video's are here, Good call on the Ocean street videos. I'll work on getting some in. If you want a particular volume let me know and i'll bring it in for you.
