Front carpet fitted around bulkhead & steering column.
The carpet was a kit purchased off E-Bay. Good quality for the money but needed trimming to fit & a fiddle.
The headliner was a real pain to fit. It is definatley a 2 person job. I tried this on my own & failed!. You can
see from the picture that there are a few wrinkles, but with a little help & lots of patience will pull out. The job is
fairly simple but it need loads of patience & allow at least 8hrs to fit it. Strong but tacky glue is also required. I
use the spray can type from my local DIY shop.
The seats were taken out of a Volvo 340 series car. I then grafted the VW runners onto the Volvo seat. The main reasons
I used these was:
1) They are comfortable
2) They tilt forward at an angle, I'll take more photos to clarify.
3) I've never seen these seat fitted into a Beetle before.
They are a bit of a squeeze, but once the both are in, it's not too bad.
All seats have now been recovered, using half leatherette & half cloth.
