Scuttle Cover

[COVDUBS]

Hi all,
The black plastic scuttle cover that covers the wiper motor and heater etc on my rocco is missing. Has anyone made a replacement, if so what did you use?

Very hard to find I'm afraid - they're no longer made, and because they get so brittle, they do tend to break. As a result, not many second hand ones about either.

Not entirely sure what you could use to replace it - ideally you'd want to keep the 'window' that allows you to read the VIN code. You could probably fabricate something out of metal... Not sure how you'd attach it though.

Always worth posting up a request in the Parts Wanted section.

You never know someone might have a decent one knocking around if only off a car they're breaking.

Thanks for the offer, bit far to come tho, I'm in the midlands. Off to the National restoration show on Sunday so might be lucky in the auto jumble!

Matt Denner at Bolt Industries makes a replacement.

I have several of the Mk1 units and the quality is fantastic.

Mk2 coming soon !!

thick black plastic DPM sheet would do the trick. i used a rubble sack on frankenrocco

My scuttle to, is on it's way out and is letting in water into the car through the heater motor. Just wondering if the mk 2 golf and jetta had scuttle covers and if so would they fit a mk2 scirocco as there a lot more mk2's golf's lying around in scrap-yards than sciroccos.

i have a spare if you want it? its not perfect but it hasnt let any water into my car. Im going to make 1 out of a sheet of thin alloy from a caravan side panel........... eventually
