I have a simple part suggestion/request.
It's for the rear drum brake backing plate glide clips.
A full set of 12 is £20 (Jan'24).

It would be good to hear your thought on such an insignificant bit of plastic. Is it worth the effort to produce such a thing.
The copy part in the bag labled 6858K are not as good quality as the VW part.
The charactoristics of the plastic in the non oem part is hard which is what the design calls for but the elasticity is poor and the four clip fixing leg pins are easily damaged.
The vw part also has a dimple in the middle of the flat disc is maginally thicker.
Your quite right in thinking this is not a rare nor custom item but any advice on where to get a bog standard plastic part made is welcome.
Are the A2 custom parts that others have requested been constructed? I'm hoping to see a handbrake tray on sale soon.
It would be difficult to make it yourself to the quality of even an aftermarket copy of it, sadly.
It might be worth trying a few brands to see which one has good enough quality.
