I can't seem to find much on this "upgrade". It is a metal environmental part that replaces part of the body on the MK2, 5 and 10. It is not the rubber cap that goes over the weep holes. Anybody have any literature on these?

Thats the environmental cap (here: MK 3) which was offered for 2 years before S.P.E.C. - refer to 1980/81 catalogs... They were offered for MK 8 (1980 only), MK 3, MK 5 and MK 7.

cheers

Neat. I saw one on an MK5 and it piqued my interest.

Mk 5s were quite common and often retrofitted. MK 3s are rare and Mk 8s super rare (know only one)
