I think both of those are in the tech guide.  Got it?  Both the early and 
late versions?

If not, I can splain the repair for the leak on the trans shifter cable for 
ya.  But, never had an early - so never had to deal with the staples.  From 
what I've read on VV in the past - you can make your own staples or get some 
VW part that fits the space without staples.

BTW - if you drive it all the time, it won't leak.  It just leaks when it 
sets for a while, right?  That's cause the fluid in the converter settles 
into the trans and over fills it.

Attachments (if any) are scanned with anti-virus software.

Later, JR
