Beetle Rear Window Seal (Deluxe) - 1965-71

This deluxe rear window seal is designed specifically for Volkswagen Beetles manufactured from August 1964 to July 1971. Unlike standard rubber window seals, this version is engineered to accept the factory-style chrome trim insert, giving your Beetle the original high-spec appearance used on Deluxe models throughout the 1965–1971 period.

Made from high-quality automotive-grade rubber, the seal fits tightly around the rear window aperture, ensuring a weatherproof barrier that prevents water ingress and reduces wind noise. The profile of the rubber features an integrated channel that securely holds the chrome trim, allowing it to sit flush and correctly tensioned once installed. This provides a clean, authentic finish identical to the original VW setup.

Perfect for restorations, replacements of perished seals, or upgrades from standard rubber, this seal helps restore the rear window area to factory appearance. While the seal is supplied on its own, chrome metal trim sets and joining pieces can be purchased separately to complete the full deluxe look.

Suitable for both original and reproduction glass, the seal installs using traditional VW methods and fits all Beetles with the early-style rear window from 1965 to 1971.
