Is it a Golde??
If a Britax it "could" have been a dealer option??

Goldie Origional Volkswagen Sunroofs were fitted on Australian made Beetles until May 1966Golde were discontinued in 1962 , Britax were fitted there after.
After that Volkswagen went to a Steel opening Sunroof by Goldie again
Britax were an After market option fitted by various shops after purchase of the Vehicle from Volkswagen
If you havea Steel roof then its origional and if its a Material type roof then possible a Britax
Have you got a pic of it ???
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true

had a 62 Golde Ragtop. Fitted and never leaked no matter how hard it rained. If it leaks is probably not a factory one...get the hose out.
