You could try these http://www.piersideparts.net/113898400B.html
I can't vouch for the quality though

Don't buy the new repro popouts, they dont fit. Buy OG ones and refurbish them with new rubbers etc.

Hi
I've had them in 3 bugs, love them but they do let noise in and if the wind is blowing the wrong way when the car is stopped you get a chance to
check your fuel mixtures.

I find they are great - leave them open on a hot day and it lets the heat out without allowing access to the car.
My kids are spewing that I didn't have them when they were little & used to travel in the car.

I bought a set of repro's for a early beetle and they are a good fit, instead of using the standard welting inside Clarke Rubber has welting with a
rubber seal on one side, i used this on my install and it works great as a double seal.
