Low back beetle seats


Have a 68 beetle and want to fit low back seats. Are the seat rails all the same in the early bugs?

A 68 would have had low backs anyway, highbacks didn't start till 72.
the runners before 70 are all the same L rails, 71-74 has T rail, 75 on has 3 point runners

Awesome Joel, thanks for that. I'm looking for a pair of low backs and wasn't sure which I needed. I can start looking now.
