Found some inner front window scrapers at Pro Auto rubber but they come in a 4 clip and 7 clip version, anyone know what version would fit a 1973 beetle TIA

Strangely enough my 73 Baja actually takes the 7 clip inner window scrapers, I know have a set of 7 clip and a set of 4 clip scrapers, going to try fit the 4 clip ones on the outside scraper aluminum trim, the ones on there are shot

I haven't got around to it yet but did manage to strip the outer scraper alu frame successfully out the doors so will see this weekend if I can make the inner scrapers work with the outer scraper moulding, just need very small tubular rivets, I was thinking of using eyelets to hold the scrapper moulding and metal stiffener to the outer scraper alu frame. I have stripped the doors fully, removed all the vrot felt channels, veny windows, scrapers etc
