Hi everyone,
My name is Russell from Bundaberg in Qld 4670.
I have 4 sets of billet alluminium bonnet hinges for sale.
The hinges are CNC machined aircraft grade 8mm aluminium. Also supplied are gas struts, to replace the old springs, and all bolts, washers and mounts
required (mostly stainless steel).
No cutting or welding required, simply remove the old hinge and spring and bolt these straight up, The gas strut mounts to the same body lug as the
old spring.
This kit greatly enhances the look under the bonnet and is quite visible with the bonnet open.
I am only asking $200 a set, this includes postage within Australia. Please Email me on
Revmeup79@hotmail.com
with any intereset or questions.
Thank you.
First batch have all sold. Thank you everyone.
UPDATE: New batch available now!!
Please get in touch with me via Email.

Will hey fit early beetles, say 1967
These hinges will fit all models except for superbugs and late bugs with the flatter bonnets. So I've been told.
RBS79, Everyone after Australia Post not telling me i had a package at the post office i called and found it , supposedly been sitting there since 24th.
(click pics for longer story)
Beautiful Packaging
Look at that shine.
I haven't got round to installing them (only got them today), but hopefully spend an hour or so tomorrow installing them to show everyone.
It's great to see someone taking the time to praise and thank good products and service, too often we only see the bad bits, good on ya eraser
PM sent.
Yes thank you very much Eraser! Can't wait to see them on another car.
They look awesome. have u tried to fit them to a superbug? If they could fit I wil buy a pair. Would be nice to have some bling under the bonnet,
especially when I drop the kids at school & they get their bags out of the front.
regards
Jak
Hi Jak,
I've just asked a guy in the Biz and he said the hinges change for the later beetles. If anyone can tell me different or agree with that please
do! I'll send VVW a msg and see what they say.
Cheers.
Thought i would jump back in here quickly, And show you some install pics (click the images to read the whole story).
And i also made a short video.. listen to that gold

One set left anyone?
I know this is late, but do you still have the last set left? I have a 1970 Baja that they would look kick arse on. Only new to the VW game and just found your post.
Hi Everyone.
I am going to make another batch of these hinges very soon so if anyone else is interested please get in touch!!
