Looking for a W Vert decklid. Know anyone locally (in Oz) who sells them? Any help would be great.

If lots of people had them then they would not be so rare would they, unless you are comparing to rocking horse shit or something common like that. W lids aren't impossible to find, sure, but since he wants a convertible lid there's not much option but to import or get one from VVDS.

There was a guy on thesamba a while back who made the vent section to graft into your own lid, not sure if he is still doing it but it is another way.

Aside from VVDS, there is an ad in Hot VW's for KSR, they make them, www.ksreproduction.com/vw.asp

Either way open that chequebook!!

Maybe a broken record, but Boris does have them. He showed them both off at Day of on Melbourne the other month. (one with vents, the other just a stright W lid)
