Review: Better than stock - Dimensions were a perfect match for the original door panels on my 73 superbug. What I did not know was that the doors do not come with the door handle and window crank holes pre-cut. On the back there is a stenciled line where if you wish to cut out for the door handle the window crank and the door latch you may. As the same with the rear you can choose to leave them as they are or you can cut out the area meant for the cigarette ashtray. Oh and all this gives you a lot of versatility and great options. And all you need is an X-Acto knife and a flat head screwdriver to cut out these options.
Review: Worked great - Good quality and price, they look great

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I want this door panel kit in other color. Can you help me ?**
A: We can get them for you but they are from a different company, made in USA and more expensive.  They cost between $145 to $185 for custom colors. We do not have them on Amazon so you would have to contact us via email for information.  Amazon does not allow the posting of email addresses.

**Q: is the vinyl cut out like the picture? got a 66 beetle and its just a round circle.**
A: no holes are cut

**Q: Will these fit a 68 beatle**
A: Fits 65-77 beatle, except convertible

**Q: How do you attach door grabs to door?**
A: It depends on what year VW year you have. If it is a 68-72 the arm rest has a metal mounting bracket with 2 nuts and washers. It attaches right to the door panel, put it on with the studs going through the door panel then put bracket on and secure with the nuts and washers. If it is a 73-76 the arm rest are attached with 2 large sheet metal screws, Install the panel then screw the arm rest in place with screws that go through the panel and screw on to the door. I don’t know about any early year 58-67 I have not done one.
