We do have excellent reproductions of the earlier padded VW Beetle dashboards. These dashboards are listed and pictured here.
These replacement Beetle dashboards have original VW Beetle dashboard design: texture, fit and fastening.
The removal and installation of a replacement VW Beetle dashboard is straightforward but time consuming. There are tabs inside the front hood and behind the panel that are straightened in order to allow your old Beetle dash to be pulled inward. The replacement Beetle dashboard installs in the reverse sequence of steps involved in the removal of the original Beetle dashboard.
For the 73-79 VW Super Beetle dashboard replacement, since there are no reproduction dashboards being made, is going to have to be an overlay dashboard.
