Beetle Heater Channel Bottom Quick Repair - Left

This left-hand side heater channel repair panel is the ideal solution for repairing the most rust-prone section of your VW Beetle’s heater channel.

This panel replaces the upper outer edge of the heater channel, where the running board bolts to the body. Decades of exposure to water and road debris often lead to severe corrosion in this area, making a clean repair essential for structural integrity and proper running board fitment.

Supplied with captive nuts pre-welded, this panel allows you to quickly reattach your running board without needing to fabricate or salvage mounting points. Designed to be trimmed and welded into place, it provides a reliable, strong repair while preserving your Beetle’s factory look.

Features:

• Correct profile for the outer edge of the heater channel

• Includes welded captive nuts for running board mounting

• Fits all years of Beetle production from 1950 to 1979

• Durable steel construction for lasting restoration

Fitting Notes:

• Position: Left-hand side (passenger side on RHD vehicles)

• Intended as a partial repair panel, not a full heater channel replacement

• Remove all rusted material before welding in the new section

• Professional installation recommended

Applications:

• VW Beetle: 1950–1979
