Wanted popouts

Hi all,

What are the chances of finding an original set of pop outs for my MK2?
Also I'm looking for rear blinds, not interested in the new repop ones!

Am I asking for the moon on a stick, or do any of you have a couple of boxes stashed in your garage!?

Thanks for reading my blather...

Al.

By Pop-outs do you mean the rear opening side windows for a 3dr?

There are no originals it's not a VW option, is however an aftermarket option.

Heritage sell full kits for lots of money, they also do glass only.

Have a look through Craigs build thread: https://www.vwgolfmk2.co.uk/clubforum/index.php?topic=630.60 he's put his own installation together and made electric pop-ups using just the glass.

Thanks for the info.

I assumed there were 'quality' ones made back in the day? Not heard good things about the ones being made today, as the seals are pants.

Cheers!
