Rubber wiring tube? The steel tubes were earlier - up to about '57.
I'd rather wear a Beetle out by racing it than by polishing it!

I'm pretty certain the steel tubes went thru to 59. The guards I have, all though beet up were original to the 58 donor body I found. just a shame
that the RH head light bucket is rusted out.

bushed,
Thanks for the offer. It's actually the area around the bucket thats rusted out, the head light seal must have been holding water over the years and
the rot go it. Repair would take a lot of work so hoping someone will have the correct guard...
