12 märz 2021 - NEW

The Belgian police force gave a strong signal of their possibilities by cracking the code for the Sky ECC encrypted phones.
As we all know encrypted phones are super popular by criminals.

Ever since it seems very busy at some lawyer offices…
You don’t need an encrypted phone, neither a code to brake it, to get the BBT Newsletter every week.

Written with a vision on public communication let us present what we have new in our program this week.

We sell the front hood seal for the Karmann Ghia under BBT # 0753 for years now. It is a good seal, but not perfect.
Many buffers between us (we’re one of those ourselves don’t worry) have been looking for a better, more perfect, alternative.

Now we bring you a better version “Made in Germany” under BBT # 0753-100.
The exact difference between BBT # 0753 & BBT # 0753-100 is in the profile.

While BBT # 0753 has the same profile all the way around our new BBT # 0753-100 is different in certain places.
That gives better closing and better gaps to your front hood.

Our BBT # 0753-100 features also the correct cut outs for the drain holes, so the water can be drained and will not enter inside the boot.
We will keep our trusty BBT # 0753 as a more economical solution, BBT # 0753-100 will be the better and slightly more expensive top quality product.

After some research we add this week this hinge pin for split window cargo doors to our program.
Many times only these cargo door hinge pins are worn out what you can easily replace now with our new hinge pins.

These type of spring pins have been originally used on all bus cargo doors from 1960 all the way up to 1967 model years.
Double cab pick-up uses these on the rear door up to 1979.

At first Volkswagen assembled cargo doors with plain steel pins ,but as an improvement changed to spring pins in 1960, for better functioning.
Pre 1960 cargo door hinge pins can be easily replaced by these spring pins as well for smoother operation.

The next section is for all baywindow fans. Engine tin – early or late we have it!

Looking at the description for engine tin (and other engine parts), there’s often a lot of confusion around which side is what.. It’s actually really easy, your car has a front and rear end and so does your motor. And we don’t need to make it anymore difficult than it is..

Various people talk about the front of the engine when they stand at the back of the car looking at it but in reality you’re looking at the back end of the motor (because you’re at the back end of your car).. So remember your flywheel is the front side and both your pulleys (crank, generator/dynamo) are the back side.

Or just refer to it like in the driving direction, exactly like we do…:)
