Highback seats to fit in 1970 bug?


Hello all

> I have a 1970 Australian Bug and wanted to put some VW seats in it so
> that I can order the original style upholstery. I do not want the low
> back seats that were originally in my car though. Does anybody know if
> any of the high back seat models will slide onto the same tracks?
> Thanks for your help

I have a '71 Super, the original seats were HighBacks. I just recently changed to LowBacks and they're pretty much the same base, thus meaning the rails were the same.
I'm sure the '70 seats/rails are the same as the '71 Supers.

my 70 standard 1300 has high backs...one of my supers has highbacks, the other low backs...and the 61 has low backs too...

so my guess is...go for the highback if thats what u like...

My dad fitted seats from a 70's super into my poor old departed 68 bug and they fitted without too much drama
