Hello, all.

After a few years away we just got another TDI (2004 Beetle). It is missing a few things. Below is a list of what I am looking for. I have a grey interior, but I am not going to be picky on color.

I am located in 47906.

-Rear headrests--FOUND!
-One of the floor mat clips (the part that attaches to the metal stud)
-Center console dash plate--FOUND!
-Leftmost vent louvers--FOUND!
-Passenger's side rocker panel (really just the rear 1/2)
-Older-style hazard switch (the one below the HVAC controls--not the triangle)--FOUND!
-Left side license plate light lens--FOUND!
-Rubber bumper on inside of hatch that holds up rear shelf

Thanks!
Josh

What you are calling "center console dash plate" is not small nor easy to replace. As I recall, it is the plastic lattice which holds the entirety of the dash. It literally attaches to the fire wall area and I had a VERY difficult time finding a useable one when I rebuilt a Beetle with dash fire.

Unless you are talking about the spaceman-face circular plastic.

Which part are you needing for the dash plate? I've got a few parts from the interior of the beetle I just parted out and need to get rid of them.

Sorry for the lack of clarity. I am referring to the part that holds the radio & hvac controls. It is rounded and the part most visible in the center of the dash.

Grey
Leather/vinyl (it is a GLS)
D-shape

I will not be super picky about color, but I do want the headrests before I start taking our kids around for safety reasons. I am not really certain why people take headrests off--this is not the first car I have had to do this. I knew it when buying the car, but it is still frustrating.

I found 2 grey (leather/vinyl) ones this morning. 1 is for a front, 1 for a rear. I'm not sure the front would work for the rear, maybe you could try 1 of yours and see?
I did find 2 black rear ones as well.
If you're interested, PM me an address and I can get them shipped out this week gratis.

Thanks

Because when you fold the rear seat flat to make the most of the NBs cargo space, you have to remove them... and if you don't want them getting stained or scuffed up you put them in the garage and then when you put the back seat up and realize how much better you can see out of the back window, and voila... see ya back seat headrests...

Bump.
Still looking for a few bits.
I know of a local yard that might have something, but I never have time!
