I thought the late beetles had the same door handles
and that the same finger guards would fit too...
maybe i'm wrong...

I bought some in the US. They aren't chromed, but polished aluminium. I'll probably put mine on today, but for a 70 model I think they are different. I know there is a few sets bouncing around the Samba, or check eBay?

Hey Jimbo, welcome back.

Petey, the ones you've pictured are for early type 3s, 69 and later are the same as late bug.

yeah, that's the kind. I thought there might have been some reproduction ones floating around but maybe not? '
Thanks for the help, I'll have a search for the late bug ones too
