WTB: Headlight Adjust Vacuum Line
I am wanting to restore the factory Euro headlight adjust system on my TD. The original vacuum lines were cut during federalization. Ideally I am looking for purple vacuum line with a white stripe.
Thanks, Shane

The original lines are a couple of different combinations. Purple with yellow stripe for the lines running from the switch to the headlights, purple only from the check valve/vacuum source to the switch and purple with a gray stripe from the check valve to the vacuum reservoir tank in the fender. Additionally there are two routing methods. The first image is the later version. Which lines do you need? The dealer has an opaque colored line replacement for $5 - $8 per meter, you need about 6 meters for the entire system. Let me know if you are interested in the correct color coded lines.

Hi Gary,
Thanks for the response. My car is an '85, so I guessing would need the later version. You are right about the colors. I still have the switch in the dash as well as the under dash lines. My vacuum line was cut and capped where it passes through the firewall. I am interested in the correct colored line set up. Let me know if you have it available and for how much. Thanks, Shane
