are they common? what are they worth/ I have onlt seen the ones with the nuts on top.

I assume you mean just the wing nuts as the other pieces are quite common.

Wing nuts are less common but not hard to find.

Check the classifieds for values.

Search all Classifieds categories as it appears that more people are selling them as "Standard Beetle wing nuts" than Bus wing nuts. More money that way? They are identical to Beetle parts as far as I know.

66 Kombi : I have the clamps with the nub from WW for the rear seat. The seat frame has no hole for the nub. Is it better to remove the nub or drill the seat frame for it?

Grind the nub off.

I'm getting ready to install the rear seat into my '67 standard. Does anyone know the specs for the hardware to attach the backrest to the brackets and the bracket to the wall?

Sweet, Thanks Everett. I'm not sure what year the back seat came out of so I will get both size machine screws to cover my bases.

Hi Guys.
Can I just ask.
Is there a repro mounting kit to fit the middle seat and the rear seat to the floor on a split van. I have the seats but no fittings.
Thanks.

You can buy the little mounts from WolfsburgWest and probably other sources

The various clamp pieces - t-bolts, clamps, nuts or wingnuts - are available too, used and new.
These parts
