I can't completely read your plates in those photos - too blurry.

You can use http://www.thesamba.com/vw/archives/info/id.php to decipher it.

Hi sorry bout the bad photoes

What I get when I size them up is

125 002 025 114

Michelin X steel radial tires
USA sealed beam headlights
Pre-heat flap delete
Safety belts
6 popout side windows

On the other numbers I get

UW 2412 381782 5119872

Which means what? the 5119872 is the chassis is 2412 the production date and what does 381782 means then?

thnx :L)

The page Everett linked above tells you exactly what all of those are. Click the link and scroll down a bit to where it says"M-code Plates". Hint: 2412 is NOT the production date.
