Color code is everything!
Although not really original we introduce the cargo door straps in most common colors to match the color of your splittie bus.
Cargo door straps prevent your cargo doors from opening too far!
Every bus came from the factory with cargo door straps installed.
Today we release the color coded 175mm door strap for high hinge cargo doors up to 1960 and all Brazilian splittie and clipper buses.
The shorter ones for low hinge cargo doors will follow soon.

Beetles from October 1952 up to the 1959 model year have a steel wire cover to protect the wiring from the indicator switch to the dashboard. This wire protector runs down the steering column.
Mostly missing and the finishing touch for ANY restoration.
This wire cover was always painted in the same color as the steering column itself.

Glove box doors up to 1967 have a nasty small round button that is not always so easy to open. But now these days are over!
BBT offers you a glove box door pull tab for smooth and easy operation.
Installed just in minutes.
Turn the nut in the back loose, take the push button lock out and place the little BBT tab between push button lock and the glove box door.
Our flat spot in the round hole prevents our little tab from spinning.
A perfect add for just any early beetle.
