Just checked for you, they have the later ones with the plastic knobs, for 27 pounds each, not bad really for new repos.
I think Custom And Commercial might do the earlier ones.
Try.

57kombi ·

Yes they are the early ones.
Thinking about it I will have to check for you on what year they changed, mine has the early ones.
I think they changed to the plastic knob ones in 60.
I will check

Cheers
Dave

ClassicVW(pacific) ·

They aint the same as in mine??

Still looking into it I think I may have found a supplier in Germany but I will have to wait till Monday now

57kombi ·

Having a closer look as the pic as it is a bit light, You are right Roy,
The earlier ones are supposed to have like a ribbed section running along in the middle of the latch.
These might be of a type 3 or something.
The later ones in the first pic are right though.

Cheers
Dave

byronbus ·

Both will fit, later ones are deluxe and earlier but open more...1st ones are later split ones...type 3 ones have the turn thingy, type 3 ones are crap on a split...

VolksFolks ·

Yer i agree that these are slightly differnt, i have one with the line/ridge down it on one of my early splits, still at least they are available.

I got a few sets of early and late I think and I need late so if I can find them I'm happy to swap a set of old ones for a set to suit my 66.
...will go look now and post a pic of what I got.
Rob

robnjo ·

oh you little monkey Rob, where you been hiding them.

57kombi ·

It might be worth him buying you a set of the later repro ones to do a swap for the early ones.
Anyone want to buy a set, come with a 57 bus????

Cheers
Dave

robnjo ·

WoW...the quick and the dead:duh

jaksc ·

Thanks for all the help. Would be happy to buy them off you Rob or as dave suggested buy a repo set to swap with you. Will send a u2u with futher details.

jaksc ·

Wasn't quick enough to get robs catches so i am still chasing a set.
