I did a search on the forums, and found out they are either '65, '66, or early '67 seats. Can't tell with certainty from those pictures.

Actually, I lied. I didn't really search because I already knew that. But I bet if I did search, well.... you get the idea. And what was the wrong with the other thread on seat frames you started this morning?

I hate to come off as curt, but, like.... dooooooood...... ya don't need a new thread for every thought that pops into your head.

Oh, brother, "dooooood"? Am I turning into that little kid in the Split Bus forums with the butchered Kombi? :shock: #-o

they are 65-67 seats your seats for a 1961 would have the top corners rounded off instead of being sqyare like the ones in the pics.And like the others said they will slid right in your car thouough .

they are not 1967 seats.. <-- see the period???? they are 1965 seats but can be used 65-67 if some things were changed. 1965 had no latch for seat back,1966 had white knob on adjuster and seat back latch,67 had black knobs on both seat back latch and seat adjuster.. those seats are more comfortable than 64 and older and will fit your pan.

Are 1958-1964 seats the same?

The second set of seats are 65 and older. They look to be correct for your 61.

1964 and older. 56-64 are same frames-just covers are different for year.
