I recommend the originals for the same reasons, that Bren wrote down. There are aluminum covers, that are working, e.g. I use Type 1 & 4 covers from Remmele, the Type 1 covers from CSP are also pretty fine, the aluminum covers from Eurorace work good, too, but only with minor rework on the bolt-sealing. The originals are just the best because, they fit, last, stay tight and seal correctly! It's just a matter of pricing and room, on most Type 4's in beetles is no room for aluminum covers.
