A few  months ago, the door check strap on on our passenger side door 
stopped holding  the door open. We've ignored it for a while, but after getting 
knocked in the  shin by the door for the millionth time yesterday, I figured I
’d ask if  there’s any way to repair the straps. From what I gather on The 
Samba  (regarding Ghias and Bugs only, actually) it seems that replacement 
is in  order. If replacement is the only option, ISP West sells “rebuilt” 
straps for  $50. If they sell rebuilt straps, I figure there must be a way to 
rebuild  mine……or is this one of the hen’s teeth of Type 3 ownership?
Contact Things for things, as they sell new check rods with the rubber  
bumper on the end. It's 1 of the few type3 parts they sell, do to it crossing  
over. ;)
