Is this a VW Grab Handle?

If so what year/interior color/pattern does it apply to?

It has no manufacturer markings, only a small set of numbers under the lock nuts. i think normal grab handles are GHE.

Thank you.

I had an NOS GHE handle which had the pebbled pattern like that. mine was singletone off-white. it was in a GHE box with an EMPI stamp on it.

I would guess it is just an OEM aftermarket accessory.

I would also be interested to know if this width is correct for a Beetle, even if this is not a VW part.

The width probably will fit, but the chrome bits haven't got the curve of the dash.

Here are some pics to help identify the different grips that pop up on ebay from time to time.

They are from a few Happich catalogs.

Thanks, I just realized that this morning. Arggg.

I think it will fit a Bus though.
