Beetle Window Sizes ????


I am looking at a set of popout windows that are supposed to fit beetles from '66 onwards, so what I'm asking is will they fit my '72 standard beetle or did the quarter windows change size or shape during this period of time?
Also are seals for them available new and if so what are they worth?
Cheers

Hi

All 12 volt Beetles in Australia (68 on) used the same side windows, ie doors and rear 1/4s. The confusen comes from the fact that when the rest of world changed window size in 1966 Australia didnt.
