Is this the style Ron? Lee Title: Re: Horn ring for 59-61 beetle Post by: Rocket Ron on July 29, 2017, 09:19:33 am Did see that but looking for one in better condition without the pitting
They did two types, chrome and a sort of satin finish. I'm looking for the chrome version. There's a nos one on eBay but it's a bit pricey Thanks anyway Title: Re: Horn ring for 59-61 beetle Post by: leec on July 29, 2017, 09:30:32 am Did think you may have seen it ;)

Title: Re: Horn ring for 59-61 beetle Post by: Neil Davies on July 29, 2017, 12:36:12 pm Ron, is it worth getting the satin one and having it chromed? Or at least the chrome effect stuff they use on plastic? Ive only ever seen one chrome horn ring and that was in my old '66. Most of the horn push Wolfsburg badges I've seen are satin on the back too, again my '66 had a chrome one and I've got a cracked one in chrome in my car at the moment.

Thanks for the thoughts but it's a one year only part as the mounting holes are different to the later ones. They are out there but may have to spend the £ to get the right one :-\ Regards Ron Title: Re: Horn ring for 59-61 beetle Post by: Neil Davies on July 30, 2017, 00:26:44 am I didn't know that! Have you tried asking Rich Oakley? He's an old mate of mine from many years ago and he's a proper vintage buffer - he might know of one?
