good luck mate those are a one year only item as they changed to the 3 vents in the 72s. they are like trying to find a new centre vent for the dash. im still looking not very hard though

yep one year only and i think there only Aussie as well so no one makes repros


I deleted those vents in my 76 by running the roof trim over them to hide the holes didnt look out of place at all

Australia, one year only! Sounds very uncommon. I want them now more than ever. The original headlining is fine and does not need to be touched. I have a new German rear window rubber to put in, and am holding off until I put the new vents in, as it will be a simple process to replace them then.

I am very interested in repro's.

nah wasnt aus only it was world wide
well excluding the backwards countries like braz and mex still using 6 volt bodies but they were 71 only

looks abit crap without them cos the body is painted mission brown for some reason
in my first 71 super i just covered it with headliner same as original 72 on and used the matching vents
cept they use 4 a side instead of the original 3

just for ppls FYI these arent actually defroster vents there extractor vents they actually suck air in and blow it out of the cabin thro those bannana shaped vents on the side
it was vws new flow thro ventilation system allegedly anyway
looks to me more like it works the other way round but go figure

Post some pics, as I wouldn't mind getting a set if they fit well.
