Re: who's the asshole??




Well, i'd just like to thank everybody for the help (and no flames for my
rant :).  I screwed the broken belt i got from the dealer, and just went to
canadian tire and picked one up there.  it worked like a charm.  Damn VW
parts guys.  you'd think they'd actually hire people that knew something
about dubs to work at a dub shop, but no, that would be just plain wrong.

 anyway, now i'm ready for my  big 12 hr trek out to Seattle tomorrow for
the Bug Nats.  lookin forward to seeing some of you there!
