The tubes can break away, but it's not common,

My handbrake lever was catching on wires in my Kombi, so I cut a piece of thin sheet metal to size and bent it into a wide "n" shape to make a tunnel-roof over the handbrake lever. It just sits on the two metal bits that hold the dash to the front (I don't know if that's the same as for a beetle). The wires go over the tunnel-roof so they don't get caught any more. It was really quick and easy to do, hope yours is as simple!
