Need help finding this part. Any suggestions??
Last time I was working on my suspension I managed to mess up the easiest part of the swap and cross thread the bolt that holds the shock in place (I really do not know how I managed to do this). I would really prefer getting this part off of someone with a crashed GTI so I do not have to go through the dealership. Below are the pictures of the part im taking about:

Go to like a hardware store or fastenal with the bolt so they can match up the thread pitch and diameter. Get a handle with the tap should be about $20 at most. Keep the handle straight and turn it in back it off after a few turns when it gets hard to turn. Don't keep turning if its hard to turn you can break the tap that way.
