jcorallo 0 Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 Just ordered one from the Snap on webby' date=' came to just under £45 inc vat & the p&p.[/quote']yep - expensive - but less than a set of leads which you might ruin otherwise... Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Steve 0 Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 Especially seeing as I have to rely on using a mates VW tool as there is not one under the bonnet of my car. Link to post Share on other sites
acf8181 0 Posted February 8, 2004 Report Share Posted February 8, 2004 dunno whether its metal, but the vw one is part no. 021 012 213 and costs about £15. Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Steve 0 Posted February 9, 2004 Report Share Posted February 9, 2004 I would not mind betting that is the price/part no for the plastic one that should be under the bonnet. If its not, then I'll be a bit gutted having spent £45. Link to post Share on other sites
