No expert but I don’t believe you can get them for Australian CKD ones

I got 5 for all the cars I had at the time, To me it was a waste of 30 -35 euros which it costs. it was through the Stiftung Auto Museum.(it has know changed)https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.com...heets.html
It didn't give me any more information then what I already knew, and the information that was on it is what I supplied to them. The information was also incorrect ,like car colours and M options that were on the cars.
You are better off buying more parts for your car, it would better value for your money and you will enjoy it more. At the end of the day it is up to you.

Apparently much more accurate for fully imported ones from 1978 onwards, but I still wonder what more info the “Birth Certificate” would show, than the info already available, if you decode the VIN?

The later Sopru conversions all had an aluminium build plate supplied and fixed by Sopru, stating date of build , seating capacity and compliance with ADR . Mine is located behind the driver’s seat and is completely separate to the vehicle build plate, also in the same location…..Others have found the plate behind the passenger’s seat.
My kombi’s build date is May ‘76, Sopru conversion date September ‘76 and vehicle delivery date to the original owner as listed on the original Dealership paperwork is also September ‘76.
Cheers,
Mark

Unfortunately I do not have the Sopru plate on the bulkhead behind the seat - nor any sign one was ever attached .
I am not sure when Sopru started attaching these plates ?
All I have is a Sopru key tag attached to the old original set of keys (with the old SA address on it).
