Hi - does anyone have the big rubber gasket seal for the headlights of a 1965 Beetle?

I found a site which sells that and its cheap only $2.

But they only want to sent it for Fedex which cost $75.

Sorry they are not $2 cheapies. Just be sure to compare apples with apples - not all seals are made the same

I assume you meant the headlight to body seal, but if you are talking about the lens to headlight surround (chrome ring), we have those too, they are
cheaper.

damn, i paid $30+ for WCM lense seals a year or 2 ago.
btw you need to change the description to " up to 67 beetle" to suit the aust models.

Yes I mean the rubber seal or gromit that goes between the fender and the actual headlight part.

VVDS can put in over night bag for around $6.00 postage if you want give them a call
they have both head light seals in stock the one for guard and the one for lens
also re furbished head light reflectors and quartz halogen globes to brighten up the 6v lights

Don't get the lens-to-chrome seal mixed up with the headlight-to-fender seal, like I did. That was half an hour I'll never get back!

there pretty hard to mix up ??? different profiles
VioletBlue - September 6th, 2012 at 09:38 AM
Yeah, they're totally different, but I got both kinds sent in the one package & mixed them up without thinking.

I tried to buy some original VW type stickers a few years ago
from a US company..
but they wanted to send them by courier..
I said put them in an ordinary airmail envelope and post them
with a $3 stamp on the envelope...
I don't think they wanted to go to the post office.. lol
LEE
Now You can buy those stickers in Australia.. lol
