    you asked for it i have all your books+ bus books and a couple t3 books. i see them all the time at swaps, and usually go for 50 to 75 depending on condition.

    every dealer had several copies so each tech would have one. some tech's bought their own, and a customer could purchase them right from the parts department.

    plus, all the speciality shops had purchased copies too. about every vw friend of mine has every book. they are alot more common than you think

    keep going to work. you didn't find the holy grail
