edd 0 Posted January 28, 2018 So, has anyone ever come up with a more reasonably priced solution to a new bonnet cable nipple/trumpet. Cheapest new one on eBay is £20 and Volkswagen classic parts Germany have them for 8 euros but want 32 euros to post it to uk Anyone know if they are still available from the dealers?

easypops 8 Posted January 28, 2018 Maybe ask Anna from Heritage as they used to sell them for about £7.50. Hopefully they are still able to get them from classic parts without the comedy postage Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fla 9 Posted January 29, 2018 Could you use a plain collar with a thread? Used to have a few, I'm sure i got them from a plumbing shop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dave-e 10 Posted February 18, 2018 Someone on here earlier suggested a golf tee with a hole drilled for the cable , tried that and it worked a treat . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Possibly me but I got the idea from someone else, and that’s only good for the drivers side as the one mentioned above is for the passenger side where the cable terminates Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
