The Volkswagen Buses that made the crossing to the US differ in some details from the European version, mainly due to the legislation of the time.
The license plate light bracket was sealed specifically for the US market by placing a protective rubber over the assembly.
In most Volkswagen Buses, this rubber has largely degraded or is no longer present. Bring your VW Bus back to the condition it was in when it crossed the border with a new protective rubber around the lamp holder.
