Does anyone know where I can find the double barrel metal tubing that guides the cable around the front curve of the Steel sunroof?? It looks almost like brake line tubing welded together and bent in a curve. All the other parts can be sourced from Wolfsburg West but not this.....any suggestions? Thanks

I have no source for you but there was also a plastic version as well.

My 64 had the plastic. Seems like back in the day when i was parting out bug sunroof parts later years had the metal guides.

You may look at the classified for both newer bugs and even Type 3 as that sunroof was similar. You may even look at Bay window buses which had a similar sunroof in the late 60's and early 70's.
