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.
Welcome to BBT News.
T25/T3/Vanagon shifters are not known for being though and tend to break.
Metal fatigue, corrosion, or wrong engineering, or all three together?
We deliver now brand-new shifters in an improved material.
Galvanized to protect against corrosion.
We cater both models, 4 and 5 speed.
Pick yours.

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.
0616-450 Side light Universal – Amber
0616-455 Side light Universal – White
We also add an extra wire loom to our total assortment of wire looms.

Did you go to a VW show lately?
You should.
It is amazing how nice people build their cars these days.
Always better, nicer, and more accurate.
Be it stock or modified.
BBT is proud to be part of our Volkswagen world.
We do not stop developing nor adding parts to our lines.
This week no different.
Welcome to BBT News.
Karmann Ghia’s are cool cats.
We decided to expand our line of Ghia parts extensively.
This week we add the aluminum profiles that hold the rubber seal between body and side windows.
Pre bent for easy installation.
Sold as complete set of six pieces for one car.
Rubber between this trim & body and around pop outs HERE
Rubber between this trim and glass HERE
0759-189 Window seal trim (set) – Karmann Ghia 09/59-07/71
T25/T3/Vanagon gets attention as well.
We add this little dust cap.
Sits on the outside of the rear bolt of your rear trailing arm.
Looks a lot like a wheel bolt cap (HERE) but much shorter.
1378-312 Cap on bolt trailing arm rear – Bus 05/79-08/92
More people want to make their cars like they left the factory.
We add more parts to help.
These carpet rings are a nice touch on that path.
Every carpet kit should have these rings, but manufacturers leave them out often to save on cost.
Sitting at foot level, something you look at often.
You can now put your own rings in your existing carpets.
Gain that looks of originality!
Rings up to 1952 been longer time in our range HERE
0540-080 Foot heater rings – Beetle 04/52-07/55 (pair)
0540-090 Foot heater rings – Beetle 008/55-07/64 (pair)
There is no secret BBT has a close relationship with our Italian friends from the Rhibo/Maxicar factories.
BBT helped out Rhibo/Maxicar several times in the past.
Happy to help when Rhibo/Maxicar asked for help to improve their sloping headlight fenders.
We shipped them a pair of original fenders to adjust the heights of headlight bucket and horn grills.
They adjusted their tooling (not simple on an old over-used tooling) and succeeded.
Helping the project they choose BBT to tell the VW world about their improvements.
We are happy to announce we received our first load of the adjusted fenders.
Upon close inspection the headlight buckets and horn grill holes are properly lined out now.
Being part of the project, we received the very first production run now, ready for delivery.
Maxicar/Rhibo fenders are close to 06/60-07/67 fenders.
BBT fenders up to June 1960 also back in stock HERE

0105 Wing front right -07/67
The BBT NEWS team wish you a wonderful weekend.
