    Where to find oil filter housing gasket, mk3 vr6?

    Hey all, I'm trying to find an oil filter housing gasket for a mk3 vr6. I went to vw but its NLA, I've looked online and found it but it seems the places I've tried want $60 postage for a $7 gasket :| Does anyone know where I can find one of these in aus? Or o/s but somewhere that doesnt want to charge a stupid amount to ship it?

    This is what I'm after:
    Oil Filter Stand Gasket, 12v VR6 [ 021115446A ] - UroTuning.com - Parts for VW Audi Porsche BMW

    Also if someone has one from a motor that isn't broken and doesn't leak I'd take that aswell

    Can you do a DIY Gasket from either a liquid gasket or maybe a gasket kit from supercheap or Repco until you find one in Aus?

    Rather not risk it tbh, I've bitten the bullet and ordered one from gap, hoping the shipping wont be more than $10 or so for it...

    Just the actual gasket and nothing else?
    I thought GAP policy was no international shipping orders below $50....

    Ahhh crap, I just saw this: We gladly accept international orders but please be aware that all orders shipped outside the United States must total at least $50.00.
    Fail. Really getting fed up with this car and it's only been a month... Not a good sign :\
