WTB - -Swap High Back Seats for Low back Seats
64blackbettle - January 23rd, 2015 at 12:13 PM

Hi everyone,

I have Super Bug seats fitted to my 64 Beetle which have the wrong tracks, that is I have original L shaped tracks on the floor pans which do not suit the super bug seat tracks, so they're not safe.

The seat have been upholsters in white Vinyl. The passenger seat has a few small rips behind the seat where the gripper were sticking out and have ripped the base. Can be repaired or leave it as it sits under the back rest and can't be seen when the seat is in the normal seating position.

If anyone has early Beetle seats I am willing to do a swap the super bug seats for early seats. Call or message me on zero for one ate one double three five ate zero.

Located in Preston Melbourne

Thanks

Another option is to weld the "T" rail tracks to the floor in place of the "L" rails.

Any idea how I get my hands on the T trails?

Have you tried Tooley Imports, H&M Ferman or Micks Motors or one of the guys wrecking an S bug?

I'm sure I have a set in Newcastle that I removed from my buggy, I drilled out all the spot welds and took them out whole. I'll see if I can locate them and post a pic.

If you have them that could be an easy option.
