WTB Beetle Headlight adjuster
m4co - October 16th, 2015 at 11:58 AM

Hello, I'm after a pair of headlight adjusters for my '64 Beetle. Let me know how much you would like for them posted to Hillside, 3037.

Btw, if anyone wants to know... If you have a JB Holden Camira, the Beetles metal headlight adjusters are identical to the Camira ones. However, the Camira has plastic ones that become brittle and break so I had to sacrifice the Beetle adjusters for now :lol:

Bump... anyone have one or know where I can buy them new?

Hey mate, just make them out of some plate, drill a hole tap a thread, bend it to shape and you're done. I did it for my 56 when i found one was missing.

Hmmm looks like I'll have to do that if no one has them for sale, thanks for the suggestion!
