Hi there

We are looking for a pair of inside rear vents for our 1971 1300 beetle. Need to be white/cream (maybe they all were this colour?). The ones we currently have are broken and deteriorating so looking for a pair in good conditon.

They are the plastic trims that cover the vents either side of the rear window (inside). They are one piece. I have been told that new replacements are now 3 separate pieces each side - but I want to get a replacement like my current ones.

So does anyone have any - or know whereabouts i could get some??

I have just had the hood lining in my beetle replaced and i noticed that I don't have vents now !
Is that a bad thing ?

my other query is though - that everyone seems to say "they have been replaced with the three separate vent covers" - but my beetle has four vents - what's the story there??

(Even ClassicVWPacific has a picture in their catalogue but shows three separate).

Is it just a matter of buying four - or are mine different for some reason??
