looking at buying a few of these.

http://www.airheadparts.com/vintage-vw-parts/washer-button/washer-button-411955549-b

yet to find anyone else who has them. Is this even good quality?

I have like a good few switches but all have no screen print left from wear.

Do these guy even ship internationally? they don't reply emails at all🙅

Wow is that the sum total of parts that you were ordering? Have you considered contacting someone like warb for a sticker or a good used one?

i WOULDN'T MIND HAVING ONE OF THOSE VLAD...
MY WIPER BUTTON DIAGRAM HAS JUST ABOUT DISAPPEARED
AND IT WAS THE BEST OF THE USED ONES i HAVE..

I know airhead parts are used by many USA vw owners...
so they seem to be OK over there...

I found years ago many good VW shops in the USA don't want to sell outside the country....

yeah I know, they do ship internationally but only via fedX which is dam expensive!

The guy who bought them for me said that the symbols are engraved, so the print sits below the surface of the button.

$2.5 each is not bad, haha I should of bought like 10 of them 😀
