These bonnet handle seals are designed for early VW Beetles—from the very beginning of production up to July 1967—and are used to create a tight, protective seal between the bonnet handle and the bonnet panel. Specifically made for the early-style handle without a push-button release, these seals help prevent water, dirt, and moisture from entering the bonnet area, while also protecting the paintwork from scratches and wear caused by metal-to-metal contact.
Supplied in black rubber and sold as a pair, these reproduction seals are a must-have item when restoring or reassembling the front bonnet area of a vintage Beetle. Whether you`re replacing deteriorated original seals or fitting a new handle, these gaskets provide a clean, OEM-style finish and help maintain the authentic look of your classic VW.
Installation is quick and straightforward—simply position each seal between the bonnet and the mounting points of the handle before tightening the hardware.
