i dont believe the Type 3 flatshape beading is made anymore each piece was shape for the different guards so there wwas 4 different sections
You might be lucky and find some old stock other wise you will have to use the Bug beading

Hello,
You can use a "T" section that is easily obtained at any Clark Rubber store it fits nicer than the beetle rounded section. Alternatively www.CIP1.com has a kit for type 3's about $70.00 U.S.

Bought my last Type3 'T' sections from Boris at Vintage VDub,beautiful fit and quality. The ones from clark Rubber is too big and looks awful, the scale of the ones from Boris is as close to the original.
