Seats

Post by burgertimegirl »

Hi,

I need new front seats for my Thing, but I wanted something with a headrest and something that would hopefully recline. Does anyone know if Karmann Ghia or Beetle seats will fit in a thing?

Thanks,
Kristen

Kristen I`ve been told that flat window super beetle (71-72) will interchange with Thing on the same tracks. As I recall the Ghia tracks are not the same. Best of luck. Bob Ingman

Small world. I'm in Reisterstown, but work downtown.

By the way, the '71-'72 seats from a Super or Standard Beetle will fit right onto the Thing's seat track without any mods. I'm running a set right now.

Later,
Rick
