Hey Samba team.

And also 356C.

Doesn't belong on any 58 - 67 Beetles.

Yeah, it's Type 3. They don't fit in the Beetle body. Unless you cut the hole larger... and I did this in my Baja bug when I re-did the headliner.

I did that because I like the design of the Type 3 dome light where you rock the lens to turn it on or off.
