    Also, has Panzer skid plate. Been on there since the engine rebuild. That was 350.00 . The seats are good newer leather seats from a 2008 beetle. I have a few little parts for it. -- Fuel gauge sender pick up. My friend seemed to think it was the gauge though and not the sender.

    1998 beetle tranny and shift linkage questions

    One more question -- I now have a single mass flywheel but the car came with a dual mass flywheel? Does that matter when ordering a clutch ? IE , can i just order a clutch kit without flywheel that is specified to fit my car? Or do i need a different clutch for the Single mass flywheel? Thanks

    1998 beetle tranny and shift linkage questions

    Ok. So according to the thread -- http://forums.tdiclub.com/showthread.php?t=301184 -- the gear selector shaft inside the transmissions along with the "top cover" that has the linkages needs to be swapped out. That is doable right?
