Here is a new product from one of our fellow VW nuts. He's completed the off-road version, the on road version is still in testing. His off-road one retails for $3200 apparently, just so you have an idea of what this sort of work costs. I hope I didn't let the cat out of the bag for him, but this is a public web page!
