Is it from a Type 3? Ghia?
I got it in a parts lot, trying to identify the year it fits and models. Thanks so much!

It doesn't look Type 3 to me
Maybe late-model Beetle Convertible?
Someone may know right away but otherwise I'd look at the late-model cars for sale on the site and compare |
But, Type 3 Ghias and Brazilian Ghias do have vent wings.
That’s a late model bug convertible vent window. You can tell by how flat the top is, it is missing the little pivot piece on the top.

Here’s a pic of the glass sitting in the convertible vent window frame.

True, I could have been more clear that it is definitely NOT a Type 34 vent wing
