Let us pamper you this week with some very cool new products to make your VW life a better one.
Long time running projects came to an end with several very nice results , dare we to say, we’re pretty proud off.
Welcome to our weekly edition on Friday of the BBT News.

First we have the grill on the outlet of your fresh air box against the roof from your splittie bus…
Many times missing or we saw them rusted, bent, plied and misabused only to name a few.

Whatever, we supply them now brand new directly from the BBT shelves.
We had to massage the SWT factory pretty hard on this one, as they didn’t believe in this product separately, they preferred to sell the fresh air boxes complete.

But now available separately.
This grill is a proud add-on to our Silver Weld Through line of top formed metal products.

The complete fresh air box and all its separate components can be found HERE
The complete fresh air box for pick up can be found HERE

We worked hard to get this plug right and it took way longer as we first would have expected, but it came out wonderful!
We talk here about the infamous red plug for the early bay window steering box.

This is the only plug that will work properly as intended by Volkswagen back in the day.
With the little O-ring on top and the special designed spring inside.

The head of the plug being little smaller than from a late bay window, it works as good on these as well….
Exactly like original, check out our nice quantity discounts.

In quantity of a 100pcs they come in a nice sliding box, exactly as VW supplied their parts…. back in the day.

For the late Bay window, T2b from 77 – 79 Panel van we now also stock the sliding door lock.
