1969/70 Fastback Seat question
Volkswagen4me - September 28th, 2014 at 08:03 PM

Hi all,
I'm looking at buying a 1969/70 Volkswagen Type 3 Fastback (it has the late outer body styling with earlier interior features). It currently has low back seats which I'm told are original. Does anyone know whether it is possible to fit highback seats to this car and/or how difficult this would be? Is it just a simple swap over of the seats?


Cheers,
Lincoln

Simple swap. Slide low backs out and higbacks in. You could also just swap the backsrests over if you have a good set of them.
