[a2-16v-list] Another one bites the dust...

[Holland Phillips]

Well, I just discovered that the big assed AC/PS/WP/Alternator bracket 
on my '92 has cracked.  I know it happened within the last month or so, 
since I've been under the car regularly for other reasons.  After all 
the problems that seem to stem from that bracket, I want to go to the 
1.8 16V bracket.
The question is, are those brackets still available new from VW?  If 
not, anyone have a good used one laying around that they're willing to 
part with (for a price, of course)?  Also, anyone happen to know the 
part number?  Oh, and while I'm on the subject, does anyone have a copy 
of the ETKA CD that they're willing to copy and send to me?
One last thing, is the early bracket a direct swap. or does it require 
changing other parts such as the upper alternator bracket, or pulleys 
on the AC, WP, PS, or alternator?

Thanks guys...

This is super common. BUY a 1.8 16V A/C bracket, otherwise it will just
happen again.
