On Sunday we have elections in Belgium.
In a tiny country with a most complex political structure this means something.

We must “vote for the best”, as we tend to say.
Lucky, we do not have to vote for good VW parts.

Just call BBT for that.

How much rain do you need?
Western Europe experiences the most wet spring in history.

Rain keeps on pouring so bad farmers cannot work on most of their fields.
This weekend we will attend a brand new vintage VW show in Belgium.

Major task will not to show off but to keep all dry!
The only way you can feel the spring is the rain getting warmer…. LOL.

Hope for the better soon!
Welcome to the BBT News.

Most European countries had specific specs before European homologation was born for new cars.
Volkswagen mounted additional indicators/ side markers as M code 34 for Italy and M46 for Denmark.

These supplementary side lights got their own proper VW part nr 111 953 061A.
For other countries you find these extra indicators or side markers dealer installed frequently, mainly because of safety reasons.
