what year model beetle seats are these


can someone tell me what year model beetle seats these are. Pulled from a 1971 super, but they dont look like the stock 71 seats.
They have the beetle running rails and work well.

Also, has anyone purchased the tight fit seat covers from george at CVD, are they any good. Any idea on prices for the full set front and back, theres no price on the website.

any advice appreciated.

NOT VW...

at least not a beetle...

maybe toyota nissan etc...
I don't think they are Golf either...

Beetle seats were very wide compared to other seats...
in other cars....

like Golf seats were very thin etc...

LEE

send an email to George...

late Beetles in the USA had narrow thinner seats so the back seat passengers had more knee/leg room..
I don't think those seats were used in Australia

Thanks everyone for the replies.
Jeremyluke - that's them alright. Yours look really good in your convertable. Who did your seat reupholstery?, or are they slip ons? If they are slip on, please let me know where to source them, wouldn't mind keeping these sets in our bug, they give more leg room in the back.

No they were made custom to my colours and design by a person in wollongong, at Enviro Truck Tarps, formerly Cramaro, they owed us a favour so i got them done through them, Im pretty sure the upholsterer that did them was only on temp and doesnt work for them anymore. I know another good upholsterer though that does VW seats and headliners and carpets, or anything i guess, if you want just let me know
