Hiya!
So I realized (just before my rebuild kits shipped) that the seats given to me when I purchased the vehicle (not IN the vehicle) were NOT in fact the seats for my 73 thing. I am looking for seats and I have found a set of Ghia seats from a 69 (have not seen them yet). Anyone know if these may fit?
Thanks!

No, Ghia seats will not fit. I think that the tracks in a Ghia are wider but the seat height is significantly lower, you wouldn’t be able to see over the dash. _________________ Everybody born before 1975 has a story, good, bad, or indifferent, about a VW.

71 or 72 high back seats from a standard or super Beetle will your best option. They should fit without any modifications. _________________ Walküre Restoration Thread: https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewtopic.php?t=737492 |
