ETKA software, made by
LexCom GmbH, is used by VW/Audi dealerships to look up parts and their
respective part numbers and prices; ETKA provides illustrations for
virtually all parts and accessories of all VWs. This software is available
to the public and is available through VW dealers at a hefty cost. eBay
sellers often have ETKA CDs for sale, but buyer beware: these CDs are really
bootleg copies of the actual software and are often not for North American
models (majority are sold from European locales) and require a certain
screen resolution and may require additional software files to run properly;
be sure the CD will work on your computer prior to purchasing. If you're
seriously interested in obtaining an ETKA CD, or any similarly-produced
software, visit http://autocd.com/ (or go
ahead and purchase it from eBay or VW). Need help in using your ETKA?

If you'd rather not buy ETKA, you can always visit
VagCat.com. Enter CabbyInfo
as the username and password and select
"Golf Cabriolet" for the model (note: North America-specific parts
will not be shown/listed).

VagCat has been having issues for a long time now. The owner of the site has
been using a translation web site to run VagCat; that translator site is
down. Until it gets straightened out (if ever), go to the original
Russian ETKA
site, click on your car's year, then click on the appropriate category
(listed below as they appear):
Аксессуары = Accessories
Двигатель и сцепление = Engine & Clutch
Задняя подвеска = Suspension
Колеса и тормозная система = Wheels & Brakes
Кузов = Body
Передний мост, диференциал, рулевое управление
