SF1FT6572C
Bring fresh air and an authentic vintage touch to your Beetle with this high-quality Safari Windows kit for the 1965–1972 Beetle, engineered to the same standards as the original VW factory parts.
Unlike the earlier flat-glass safari kits (1958–1964), this kit has been specially designed for the famous slightly curved windshield, making it the first and only faithful reproduction ever produced for this model range.
Key Features
Original VW Profile Frame – heavy-duty 14-gauge steel, same thickness and shape Volkswagen produced in the period
5 mm Glass – correct thickness for durability, clarity, and proper fit for the slightly curved windshield
Mirror-Finish Frame – professionally polished and triple chrome plated for long-lasting shine and protection
Correct Seal Profile – precision-molded EPDM rubber seal with authentic VW cross-section:
Rounded hollow bulb compresses against the body for a tight closure
Integrated lip/fin channels water away to prevent leaks
Material matches original VW density and flexibility for long service life
Factory-Style Hinges & Hardware – all details reproduced to VW factory specifications
Hardware Details
Every hardware component has been carefully reproduced to look, fit, and function exactly like Volkswagen’s originals:
Hinges – stainless steel, correct 190 mm length. Exact VW profile for proper fit
Frame & Latch Screws – stainless steel, both slotted and Phillips head styles, with correct diameter, thread pitch, and length (copied from NOS samples)
Pivot Rivets – solid steel with polished flat heads, replicating VW safari rivets
Washers – fiber and metal (wing nut and hinge rivet types) with correct thickness and material for sealing and durability
Chrome Wing Nuts – steel with professional mirror chrome plating, same finish VW applied originally
Why Choose This Kit?
This is not just a reproduction — it is a milestone restoration piece. While the earlier flat-glass safari kits (1958–1964) have been available for years, this is the very first correct safari window kit for the slightly curved 1965–1972 Beetle windshield. Every element has been engineered to factory-correct standards: frame gauge, glass thickness, hardware, and seal profile. The result is safari windows that look, install, and perform exactly like originals — now available for the first time for this generation of Beetle.
