High back seats for a 66

[daleydouble]

I have a 66 Bug and would like to have high back seats (FYI: I'm not looking to get sell/trade my low backs).  I believe  68-70? will fit.  Can someone confirm what years will fit?  Anyone have some to sell.  I would be looking to redo them so I just need good working metal - they don't need to be pretty just functional.

Thanks!

I believe up to 1972 the seat frame rails are the same. My 1973 has different mounting for seats.

Why highbacks? a Safety concerned? ,I cut the tops off the 68 Volkrod seats
yepper 73 was the year they changed to the pyramid mount.
I 'm sure somebody has some for ya ,I checked and I have 73's ,, sorry

Thanks for the information.  I just feel like having the high-backs would be better for any rear-end collision.

You want 68-70 seats as the 71-72 seats were the same principle except there were nylon sleeves that went on the rails.

I have a pair you can have for free in order to help clean up my garage. Good shape but have a couple of tears in the covers, covered by duct tape. Came out of a 69 Vert.
