Most of these things I can understand the why, except for that toothbrush.... maybe its so you can plug it into your laptop on the way to work in the morning??? :o

I think the "Safety Star" accessory for the beetle takes the cake.

It was a non-starter until Unity28 noted that the originals were to be preferred, as they don't light up.

well here is a really really stupid thing for your kombi or type 4 , these people are experts obviously

actually there a few places in America which give you this info for beetles as well, they must all have the same program

modulus - January 16th, 2004 at 10:33 PM

They've also go rare Beetle parts, like this one:
http://www.overnightautoparts.com/volkswagen-type-1-t1--001-water-pump.html 
"The Volkswagen Type 1 water pump is the heart of your Volkswagen Type 1 cooling system."

That's got to be rare...
