not really sure what you mean by bad clamp (bent up?), i'd just go to your local vw shop and get one. pretty cheap, in fact, they will prolly just give it to ya. maybe even go to the junkyard and get one, if they happen to have any VW's there. glad you got it on the road again. we gotta race one day Twisted Evil
