Re: hoods

["Marc A. Brown" <Mad_One@email.msn.com>]

VW (as do most German companies) makes two different hoods for the Jetta.
They make one for the heated washer nozzels and one not.  The heated washer
nozzles are larger than the regular one and require larger holes.  If you
want to go with a GTI hood, you will have to order one that can hold the
heated washer nozzles.  Other than that, the hood is a direct fit.
