Oil Coolers for VWs....
VDO Gauges are as good as any and are used by Most VW owners.
You can buy external oil coolers expressly made for VW engines along with adaptor plates etc... as a kit... You will know these Will fit OK...
Don't mount the oil cooler across the VW fan as suggested in the kits though,,
check with Mick Motors etc... for prices etc.
regards
Lee
