Don't think there are many spare W-decklids in Ireland. But they are being reproduced by KSR (steel not fiberglas). I have one of these for a project and very impressed with the quality. Link to a shop in The Netherlands that do them - http://www.paruzzi.com/webwinkel/?full=1&zoektrefwoord=102 VW Heritage have them too, but WAY more expensive (€200 difference) - http://www.vwheritage.com/vw_spares...hop.product_pID_96320667.htm?crumbStartPage=1

Curious what car you have KARMAD. Is it an oval or a later model that you want to fit a W-decklid on?

Decent enough looking one on RJ Volks at the moment for £150

^ that's a semi-W, nearly there

£150 is a very good price. I see originals doing 350-400 yoyos in Belgium and Holland.

Thanks lads for your help ,I did a deal on the one for £150 on Rj volks its going on a custom 1303 . Most of you will probably frown on this .

 

[loadsabuses]

we wont frown on it as long as you cut the ugly front off the 1303 and stitch in an early front to match the deck lid LOL .

 

[KARMAD]

I thought curves were more popular these days

 

[KARMAD]

Ah if everything was always the same life would be boring

 

[KARMAD]

Can any suggest a company that can post a decklid from the uk to here as the place I was buying my decklid off said the can't get a good qoute to send it to dublin

Have you tried www.tpn.ie or shiply.com ?

Maybe GLS if it fits within their max size?
