This reproduction distributor cap is a direct replacement for most VAG (Volkswagen and Audi Group) distributors from 1968 to 1986, specifically for engines retrofitted with vacuum advance or Bosch 009 style distributors. With a 65mm diameter, it is suitable for many 1300cc–1600cc aircooled engines and select watercooled models. This cap ensures reliable spark distribution by connecting the ignition coil to the spark plugs via the rotor arm inside the distributor.

A common choice for restored classics or tuned engines, this cap is made to OEM spec with durable terminals for consistent electrical contact. It features correct fitment for a wide range of models, including:

• VW Type 1 (Beetle, Buggy, Baja) – 1.2–1.6L (1968–1986)

• VW Transporter T2 & T3 – 1.6–2.0L (1968–1985)

• VW Type 3 – 1.5–1.6L (1968–1973)

If your vehicle uses a Bosch 009 or similar vacuum advance distributor with a 65mm diameter cap, this will likely be the right fit.

Note: Always compare to your original part before ordering. Not compatible with modern hall sensor or electronic ignition systems without distributor caps.

This distributor condenser is a high-quality replacement part for classic Volkswagen models equipped with 1300cc, 1500cc, or 1600cc air-cooled engines, originally fitted between 1970 and 1972. It is designed to work specifically with distributors that feature a round hole in the side of the housing, where the condenser’s wire and round rubber grommet pass through to connect with the contact points inside.

A properly functioning condenser is critical for maintaining the efficiency and longevity of your ignition system, as it reduces arcing across the points and ensures a stable spark. This version is a direct fit for VW distributor model 111 905 205L, commonly found in various air-cooled VW vehicles during this period.

It is important to verify your distributor type before ordering. This condenser will not fit other common distributor designs that have a square hole in the side or a round hole in the base. Using the incorrect condenser may result in poor ignition performance or premature failure.

• VW Beetle (T1): 1.3–1.6L, August 1970 – December 1972
