i dont believe the Type 3 flatshape beading is made anymore each piece was shape for the different guards so there wwas 4 different sections
You might be lucky and find some old stock other wise you will have to use the Bug beading

Hello,
You can use a "T" section that is easily obtained at any Clark Rubber store it fits nicer than the beetle rounded section. Alternatively http://www.CIP1.com has a kit for type 3's about $70.00 U.S.
Cheers

Bought my last Type3 'T' sections from Boris at Vintage VDub,beautiful fit and quality. The ones from clark Rubber is too big and looks awful, the
scale of the ones from Boris is as close to the original.

Painted the originals black on one side and used clark rubber ones on the other, can barley tell the diff. only the clark rubber dosn't sit very
well.
Tuned Type IV power - shaking out the rust.
