Distributor parts availability?

I'm looking at getting a reconditioned ZV/PAU 4R2 or 5 dizzy from the states, and being almost midnight obviously I can't call any of the usual suspects to enquire about whether they stock the replacement parts - does anyone know if say Vintage Veedubs, or Repco or anywhere else (local websites maybe) sell the necessary points, rotor button, cap etc for when the included parts are done? Unwilling to invest in one unless I know that I'll have the parts for maintenance handy... Cheers!

Go to this site, scroll down x2 pages - list of VW Distributors with appropriate Bosch P/Ns for all consumables.

http://aircooledvwaddiction.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=3

Have a look on your favourite Parts sites or local eBay for availability using Bosch Part numbers listed.

[size=4]Hi
for VW parts always go to a VW parts shop NOT Repco etc

... You will get the correct part and pricing MUCH cheaper than Repco [same with fan belts] [or email Your order as I do or phone ]

I have seen all the Bosch parts listed for some VW beetle distributors but actually getting them may be a different thing

What is special about this distributor??

what was it out of???

do You have the Bosch part number?? like 9 230 061 401 ??
