I have no Idea about that (defrost?) duct. Searched several VW part catalogues to no avail.

In other news I finally managed to replace the Bosch 094 distributor with a 010. 8-)

Bought that thing for 215 € (240 $) back in 2016 and rebuilt it little by little.
May be I'll be posting this adventure in the "A passage in time" thread some day...

Holy crap! All the surrounding structures ok?

nobody's said anything about damage to houses or cars or anything so there doesn't seem to be. surprised, it burned for a good 10 minutes. it would hit a patch of dried pine needles stuck in the tree and it would flair up (see the first pic) lucky me wind was blowing away from my house
