Bosch connector boots and hose questions..

[james accordino]

I would try Kris Manusha at VM Autohaus.com.  They are
in British Columbia in Canada.  He has been able to
source many parts for me that other suppliers
stateside all said were "dealer only".  He also
supplied the rubber booties and Audi correct terminals
with my Eurolights.  I think it's a good shot.
Knowing the p/n is helpful.  I e-mail him the p/n's of
what I want, he sends me the prices and availability
and then I tell him what to send.  Pretty painless
really.  And he's been spot on with what he sends.
It's always been exactly what I asked for.
