Has anyone done this on an early beetle before? Just interested to know which way they mounted (if a bracket was used or not) and possible measurements on position.
Cheers

yeah talk with Mike at Vintage 9789-1777
he had them on his peach 58 beetle years ago n work well

Hi

Aircooled.net sell them

Steve

Cheers lads. If anyone has a photo of the mounting spot that would be tops, assume its pretty basic, but photos are always nice. I'll talk to Mike

Hi

They use the stock mounting points.

Steve

Steve, i don't think there were any mounting points on a 58? Is this correct? I think they used a latch to keep it open once pulled up...

Cheers

yep no stock mounting points on the 58


thats the hard part working out the mount point with the strut that you use

Yeppo, took some measurements of the shell outside vintage veedub. Will make my own brackets and play with positioning. I've got one of the standard kits so the struts are the right length. Should be a ball
