Hi there

I would like to fit a roof rack to my 64 standard Beetle,
who currently produces the best quality brand new roof rack?

The type I am after is the Wolfsburg West unit

Does anyone have one of these what is the quality like?

Does anyone have a picture of one fitted up to their Beetle?
My other query is how high do they sit on the roof clearance might be an issue, I only have about 6 to 7 inches of clearance between the top of my Beetle and the garage.


Same queries for the units supplied by mick motors and classic vb, i would like to see some different types on different Beetles please. Does anyone have a photo of their new roof rack and where did you get it from?


ta

three places u can try are:

vintage veedub 97891777, custom bugs and busses 47229313 and classic veedub 96384200. all 3 will be able to get u what you want.

thanks mate, will try them next week

Would also be nice to see any racks members here have on their cars,

here are some pics of my 1968 bug with the wood-slat roof rack from Mick motors;

Hey jedidan thanks for that

what is the quality like? It looks pretty good, did it come as a knock down kit that you had to build?



ta

quality is fantastic - very well built and quite solid. Comes in one piece, no assembly required. Bring ur bug and clip straight on

thanks for that jedidan, sounds like the one to get then


BTW nice looking car you have there,

a good thing to do is take off the black rubber tube,on the feet and replace with the clear silicon tube, that you get from fishshops. the black shit will leave marks and brake down in the sun. these rack are a good height for sunroofs too

geeze i miss dave.. he would of been all over this like a rash..

thats a sweet bug Rose, is that your other one?

Yes one of the collection very original old 62 Beryle we call her as her colour.
