Do you need "Pathfinder" parts, or do you need VW parts?

Things like the heat exchanger boots are available elsewhere (perkins), RW impellers from Jabsco or Sherwood or aftermarket suppliers depending on your pump type.

The FWC pump is a standard VW part, as are oil filters, any engine items like injectors, bosch fuel pump, starters, alternators can all be found at any supplier for VW parts.

Pathfinder is on the web but a bit hard to find... I'll look for the link when I get home.

Here is the contact info for Pathfinder - they are not far from you!

But check with automotive jobbers and VW dealers on actual VW parts and compare prices. I've found Pathfinder very helpful in the past with the marinization-specific parts and modifications, but have also had good luck with VW suppliers and mechanics for other items.
