i have a 67 beetle that i bought a headliner for. when i got the liner in i realized it did not come with the bows. so i went to the junk yard and took some out of a 68070 beetle. i didnt number them when they came out and i realize some of them are a little different. any advice on which ones go where? thanks in advance

You can still find Beetles in a junkyard?

I bought some headliner bows from Mid America Motorworks not too long ago when I was rebuilding my seats. They are the same diameter as the ones used for the headliner and I cut them to length. They were not expensive and when I purchased them they were not year specific so I am sure they would have worked for a 67 T1 headliner.
