Standard Looped interior carpet kits for the Volkswagen Beetle are provided without the trunk floor section (cargo area behind the rear seat). If the interior is equipped with a new carpet, the rear department cannot be forgotten, which is why this set is usually ordered together with the rest of the carpets.
Until 7.1964 inclusive, the rear department has a minimum carpet coverage, only the inner wings and the lower part with the rear window well below the rear window are covered with carpet. From 8.1964, this was modified and not only the trunk floor was covered, but also the rear of the rear seat which continues under the rear window.
If you have removed the rear seat to create a larger loading platform, a standard set of carpets will not be enough, a small part of the carpet will be missing. But don't worry, a set of carpets has been developed so that you can cover the whole rear department, even without having the back seat installed.
All carpet sets for the rear department are made of the same fabric as the standard Looped Interior carpet sets, the visible edges are sewn and glued in the same way (for glue, see the options tab).
