Gentlemen across the Atlantic...... Does anyone know where I can buy the short dash vents that came standard on the 68up Type 1's WITHOUT the dash pad? All I can find over here are the tall US versions (w/pad). There HAS to be a source for the flush type units. . Please advise if possible.
My vert does not have a dash pad and I have tried to modify the 67 vents by cutting and splicing and it's not clean enough.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Worm

The center one I used from a 67. It looks and fits perfect. The ones I need are the shorter units on the outside ends. (see picture/red circles)
I can't find these anywhere. The second pic shows how I modified them to fit. Not clean enough. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Yes if you have them I would like to get them from you. Please let me know by pm.
THANKS GUYS!

You need 2 x 113-819-635 Dash vents for the metal dash. These are available form either VW Dealers or Heritage VW etc about £5.00/$8.00 each  |

Dont think the ones I have will be of any use here as they are the duel vent type that blows at you with a vent facing you too .
