Where to buy a 64 Beetle windscreen (new)
FROSTY - November 24th, 2011 at 05:28 AM

Hi There,
I have never bought a windscreen for a beetle before,
Do the normal windscreen guys sell them ( O'brien's ) or they only availible from veedub shops?
It's a 64 Beetle.
Thanks
Jason

you may have to order a 1967 model windscreen...
if they don't list 1964

I bought my laminated screen from koala glass and put it in myself

plenty pf used safety glass windscreens about.. used..
new screens are laminated glass...

Safety glass is now illegal for windscreens...
and has been for many years...

If You don't have seat belts...
its better to go thru a safety glass windscreen than hit a laminated windscreen
