Will these Mud Flaps fit my Vanagon if I already had the original German rubber ones?

Yes, they fit great, but please note they are different from the original soft rubber flaps. They sit in a different position and do not mount into the original grommet holes, so you will need to drill new holes in the inside edge of the wheel arch for installation.

Are these Mud Flaps suitable for use in very cold weather?

We do not recommend these hard plastic flaps for extremely cold climates. Freezing temperatures can cause the material to become brittle, which may lead to cracking if they are hit by road debris.

What is included in the kit and how do I choose between front and rear?

Each kit includes a pair of flaps, installation hardware, and detailed instructions. You can select whether you need the Front Pair (which feature black VW emblems) or the Rear Pair (which feature white VW emblems) using the drop-down menu on the product page.

Do I need any additional parts to finish the installation on my Vanagon camper?

Since these require drilling new holes, you will be left with the old mudflap holes. To achieve a clean look, we recommend ordering two small black grommets per wheel arch to fill those original openings.

Les bavettes d’origine allemandes OEM sont souvent indisponibles. Heureusement, nous proposons des bavettes Volkswagen d’Afrique du Sud d’origine qui sont vraiment très belles. Ces bavettes en plastique dur s’adaptent parfaitement, mais nécessitent d’être percées pour être installées et sont positionnées différemment des bavettes d’origine allemandes en caoutchouc souple. Veuillez consulter l’onglet des instructions PDF et celui des remarques sur la compatibilité pour obtenir des informations détaillées. Les bavettes avant portent des emblèmes VW noirs, celles à l’arrière portent des emblèmes VW blancs.

Chaque kit de bavettes comprend :
• Une paire de bavettes (avant ou arrière) - Veuillez sélectionner avant ou arrière dans le menu déroulant.
• Le matériel de fixation
• Des instructions détaillées

Non recommandé pour les climats extrêmement froids. Les températures négatives peuvent rendre ces bavettes en plastique dur cassantes et provoquer leur fissuration si elles sont frappées par des débris de la route.

Look great but.

They just don’t hold up. I thinks it’s the plastic they are made out of. I had a front one crack and a rear one.
Seem brittle. My van barely goes out in the rain never mind bad weather.
Disappointed.

Hi Tracey, these plastic flaps are not recommended for cold climates as they get brittle and can crack. We have a big bold notice on the web page alerting shoppers to this. Regardless, we are very sorry that you experienced this personally.

These are a heck of a lot better than nothing, but they come without the clips to hold them onto the fender flare. You can buy them elsewhere online for around $30. I think you're expected to drill holes in your fender flares--the instructions are vague--but if you've spent a mint on body work like I have, that's not going to happen. If you complain to GoWesty, you'll get an AI response. Sigh.

Totally fell apart in a few years. These just DONT stand up to the sun or the elements.

We hear you Ron. While we feel that they deserve more than a 1-Star review, we agree that they could be signifiantly more durable than they are. We truly appreciate your feedback, and will consider discontinuing this item based on your experience. All the best, GW
