I have found a pair of scatt seats that are listed as for beetle 48-55 & Beetle 56-70, will these tacks suit/fit a 1970 fastie?

Sorry should have mentioned they are the scatt with adaptor. Have been told fairly easy to modify if needed.

My 'point' is - he is stating this because the seats come with the adapter described (no option for with or without) - you don't get a option to change from beetle to type 3 - it is how they ordered it. His option is to order separate adapters direct from Scat.
