Default Help needed sourcing parts

Hi
Do any of you know of any places I could get

N 0201391 - this is the black stiff vacuuum tube
078129949C - throttle body seal?

I've tried Prestige and they can't source them, I've looked around online and can only get this stuff from like Greece and America which will take ages etc

You could use nylon pneumatic line for the vacuum tube.

Stumped on the throttle body seal though. Tradition don't even have it. A used one from a broken 2.8 is probably the quickest option for that tbh.

There seems to be quite a lot of NOS VAG stuff in Greece for some reason. I got some New Beetle parts from there recently which were unobtanium anywhere else.

Thanks Mikki, do you know what size tubing I should select?

I bought the gasket from poland from this link:
https://www.vag247.com/en_US/p/Air-m...t-2.4-2.8/2500

Hopefully shipping will be much quicker than from Greece haha
