Was covid just a reset button economically?
What did Covid do? Is there really before, during and after?
Sometimes it feels like we started all over again, isn’t it?
Everything looks and feels so different.
Before Covid, seems like pre-Historic, such a long time ago….
Now after Covid, or can we say “Post Covid”, energy, worldwide shipping, exchange rates etc are regulating or kind of.
Inflation seems heading in the right direction…. or kind of.
The only exception seems prices, many things became much more expensive.
The price of eggs raised 300% in three years’ time, in Belgium at least.
We might count ourselves happy with VW parts, price increases are still affordable.
We @ BBT, just continue what we have always done, creating more possibilities to enjoy our VW hobby the right way.
Our purchase team is fighting every day to keep things available and affordable.
We study each product over en over again, checking on quality, availability, and price, in that order.
That way we can sink prices from time to time too.
No general price rise @ BBT.
This way we try to be your favorite brand supplying the parts you really need for your beloved Volkswagen.
Welcome to the BBT News.
We came across a parts lot of these very specific heater cables for your late Bay window bus.
This is the cable regulating the warm air flow and runs from dashboard to the heat distributor central down under your bus.
The central down under heat distributor regulates the air for front or rear cabin.
For deluxe models that is.
These cables are absolutely NOS Germany.
Make that heater work, properly!

Need to Nose?
Beetle license lights up to 1963 nicknamed “nose”, because that’s exactly how they look!
Knowing nothing about otorhinolaryngology we still managed to get all components for our beetle noses!
Today we add the small rubber between lens and housing for 58-63 noses.
0749-120 License plate light seal – Beetle 08/57-07/63
Rubber between housing and engine lid HERE
The separate lens is HERE or a complete new nose you find HERE
We made the bumper bracket spacer up to 1967 with an extra eye stamped in one piece.
This eye mounts different accessories as fog or reverse lights easily.
On semaphore cars these brackets are perfectly used for extra blinkers too.
Regular bumper bracket spacers up to 1967 you find HERE
0009-120 Bumper bracket spacer with bracket – Beetle -07/67 (TQ)
Details do matter!
Being 100% symmetric before we remade these wiper shaft grommets with an extra buffer lip outside and one conical inside.
The buffer lip makes sure that water is kept out and the conical inside helps at mounting.
We now made them exactly as Volkswagen used to make them back in the day.
For perfect fit and finish.
Detail is necessary, also in our smaller parts!
All together for a better (VW) world!
