RE: Safety Warning Traingle

Hi All,

Does anyone with a Passat Sedan (new shape) have the Safety Warning Triangle installed in the boot lid recess?

I went to get this today, however the dealer just sold me a "universal" triangle and it is far too long to fit within the parameters of the recess in the boot lid. The space available is 430mm x 100mm.

I think the part number should be 1Y0093055 or 4B5 860 251C can anyone confirm these?

The dealer sold me 000093055K.

My R36 came with one. It wasn't there at the time of delivery so the salesman just gave me one out of a CC he had on the lot. Fits perfectly but I don't know about the part number.

Is yours a sedan?

If so, the triangle should have a part number on it if it is still in an orange box, if it is out of the box it may have it printed on the triangle itself.
Does it sit within the recess in your boot lid?

Thanks in advance.

Yeah I have a sedan. Yeah it's in the recess in the boot lid.

Should these come standard? Mine didn't have it on delivery...

My R36 didnt come with a triangle either its got a nice hole where it should sit.

**Rocket36** · 11-06-2009, 05:01 PM

Mine didn't come with one. But when I complained that it was "missing" the sales guy took one from a 3.6 CC in the showroom.

lol

Maybe I got something I shouldn't have.

Just went and checked. There's a few numbers on it...

Next to a VW logo it's got: 3C5 860 251
Underneath "TRIMEC CD" it's got: E13 inside a circle and then R 030024

I didn't get one in my wagon either - or a first aid kit. Can get both OEM from www.oempl.us

btw Don't bother with the VW Australia first aid kit - it is a very ordinary piece of kit. I bought that originally - a real joke - a couple of bandaids, a tube of antiseptic cream and not a lot more. The OEM kit is much better, with lots of bandages and things.
