[T3] Mystery Miss

[Dave Hall]

I don't think the prices I can find are per set of 4; they seem to be for a
single one.  Was that what you expected?

I have a set of 4 orange/brown ones, unfitted - I guess they're just
silicone rubber mouldings.  
Type 3s seem prone to condensation on plug insulators, while I don't recall
similar problems on the old Beetle.
I've wondered if it is possible to adapt some of the shrouded plug
connectors from modern VWs, and the seal to go around to stop cooling air
from leaking out. However ISTR the suppressors are 5K Ohms, so maybe they
wouldn't be suitable.

I just discovered that if I leave the A off the search, I get a lot more
hits. The price comes down to $16 or 8 Euros (less than $9) each. Dave Hall
might be able to buy some for 8 Euros in England and bring them to the
Invasion. They're small, so not a problem to pack.
