[V6-12v] Substitutes for VW tools (electrical)

[Tom Christiansen]

Folks,

More often than not do I find myself reading the Bentley manual only to
find that I need VW tester so-and-so in order to perform a particular
test. 

I found the following on the Bentley Publishing site:
http://tech.bentleypublishers.com/thread.jspa?threadID=4799&tstart=0
Among other things, the article contains instructions for building your
own LED tester, the VW tool for testing instruments (VW 1301), less
expensive DIY adaptors for VAG-COM, etc. 

Thought I'd share my findings...
