i have a 74 beetle and I'm trying to figure out if I can install earlier pans in the car. I plan to use either aftermarket seats with their proprietary rails or perhaps use Scat seats/rails and use earlier tracks to mount those. Most of the pans I've found online have the big 74 seat hump already welded in place and i dont need it ( with the exception of the WW pans ). there's also a significant price difference Is there any difference - aside from the seat mounting between the years? in other words will 70 pans fit in a 74? thanks

Ask the VW Parts Dealers as I'm sure it's common knowledge with them.

You can fit any year pans, it's the seat brackets that differ. Though you can't fit late 3 point brackets to earlier pans as the shape is different around the mounts.
