One of the most common areas for rust to begin on a Beetle is the heater channels. This 1971-1979 Super Beetle Inner Front Heater Channel acts as a cost effective repair panel to restore the worst area for rust without replacing the entire channel. This heater channel section is designed to be as close to the factory fitment as possible. However, every vehicle can vary and some minor cutting, grinding, or filling can sometimes be required for proper fitment.
