Does anyone know where I can buy red basket-weave, roll-top, low back seat covers to suit a '68 beetle?

Thanks Henry, I am really after new covers to match the back which are really good, the seats I have are great, just wrong colour!

I bought mine from Brad at Bug 'n' Bus. Great fit and finish and the service was excellent.

One bit of advice, wrap the top of the foam in a bit of cling film, makes it super easy to slide the cover over.

You can get the Origional type covers from VVDS 02-9789-1777 that will match

Chickenfillet. Are they the TMI covers. Or custom made?

Hi 68 Bus,

They were a TMI product that Brad supplied to match the original.

Cheers,
Kevin
