I'd say your VW dealer would be the best place to try

Hi thanks for the reply. I thought as such a common part I might be able to find this online cheaper I guess not.

You should be able to get from your local TPS, slightly cheaper than your dealer.

Thanks I gave them a call and they said I had to be part of the trade. Also they don't keep stock.

Sadly it seems to be a bit hit and miss as to whether they will sell to you. My local one certainly does. Although they may not have any in stock, they can get them very quickly. You might be lucky to find a dealer with them in stock, if not they need to source through TPS anyway.

Think I would be inclined to go to the dealer for such a part. Looks like they were £4.22+VAT in 2011, so discounts are likely to be pennies.
