I've only ever seen the kits they sold to make your early bug look like the later bigger windows... that one is pretty cool though.

Re: rear split window bug safari
are you sure that isn't custom made? if you could get a split window section you could make one that did that? do they make rear safaris for beetles like that?

its a wanted ad and he is wanting info... so who knows...
either way, it would probably be easier to make your own than to find one. That is the only one I have ever seen or heard of

I think it would be alot better if it was just glass instead of a fake split window.........

Re: rear split window bug safari
I agree, but I wonder with all of the curves in the glass how well it actually seals?

Probably like crap!! Safari windows are totally flat and they never seal up completely, so I bet this leaks alot. You could probably waterproof the area behind the seat as sort of a catch basin and run a drain down behind the engine tho!! or let it stay full and stock it with some goldfish or something.

Re: rear split window bug safari
There was a company back in the nineties that made a fiberglass split window kit, it entailed cutting the vents beneath the window, and glassing in a piece that had the larger vents and split glass. Everyone of those that I ever saw cracked where it was bonded to the car, probably due to engine heat, and different expansion rates of fiberglass and steel.
