The best Chinese VW story I have heard was from my friend a VW mechanic who got one of the "reverse" engineered intake manifolds for a dual port. It was a "mirror" image. The long side was on the wrong side, just the flip/flop from what it is supposed to be. Course it came from Empi. How many had they sold before someone realized they had made them ass-backwards. ________________________________ From: "john_bartell@xxxxxxx" <john_bartell@xxxxxxx> To: "tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" <tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, April 1, 2014 5:08 PM Subject: [tcb] PROCRASTINATION Don”t put stuff off-do it now. Over a year ago, I ordered and received an under dash shelf for my bay. For one reason, or another, I didn’t try to install it until today. If I had tried to put it in right after I bought it; I would have returned it for a refund. Made in China---the orient strikes again. Instructions unclear(no big surprise) fit very good for some other vehicle, just not a bus. After a couple of hours of wrestling I have it in, and hopefully secure enough to take the weight of a bag of marshmallows. Dan Sent from Windows Mail
