Mk5 Smiley small parts wanted, door catches etc.

Postby elastoplastscavenger » Tue Aug 15, 2017 3:27 pm

Hi, I'm looking for a few odds and ends for my "new" van:
All for Mk5 Smiley 1999 short wheel base:

Door check strap with bolts, right rear load door (stops door blowing open too far).

Sliding door bump stop with bolts (bolts to inside of door and hits door frame when slamming).

Spare wheel and carrier. Not sure where the wheel is meant to live? I'd like to sling it underneath, not scared of a bit of fabricating if needs be.

Blower control for demister fan.

Timing belt covers for 2.5 bananna engine (no turbo).

Migh consider a 2.5Turbo engine, intercooler etc. if the price is right and it comes to me on a pallet.

Thanks, John/elastoplastscavenger

You can get new aftermarket timing belt covers off ebay. Around £10 if grey matter server me correct. If I had spares of my spares I'd supply you with the door checks, but alas I cannae.

Thanks, I'll check ebay timing covers out.
Can you enlighten my about where the spare wheel is meant to live on a short wheel base panel van Mk5? I'm hoping there is an under floor option.

Yes the spare wheel goes under the van at the rear. In the centre of the rear bumper at the tip there's a hole where you put the handle in to wind down the mechanism. Most of them get crudded up or rust off so worth while to work it about a bit to free it up, that's if it's still there ;)
