Where to buy a 64 Beetle windscreen (new)
Hi There,
I have never bought a windscreen for a beetle before,
Do the normal windscreen guys sell them ( O'brien's ) or they only availible from veedub shops?
It's a 64 Beetle.
Thanks
Jason

Safety glass is now illegal for windscreens...
and has been for many years...
If You don't have seat belts...
its better to go thru a safety glass windscreen than hit a laminated windscreen
