I found these at an old junkyard the other day. They seem to fit but they have these 2 tabs instead of hinges, anybody know?

I worked for Volvo of North America, back in the 70s and learned that about the only part that fit a VW, were the beautiful 15" trim rings and yes, i'll bet those are 444 or 544 pop-outs - z
