Re: My 1968 Bug
I think it is some type of cobalt blue. The rooflining is finished and now I must put the windows back in. Is it dificult to put the windows back in, because pg glass charged me 1400 rand to put it in and I am not wiling to pay this much for instalment.

Re: My 1968 Bug
Go to another glass fitter, PG only gives half a ring finger change for 2 arms,and 2 legs
Find a small guy that needs the work....Just make sure he carries the risk of broken windows.

Re: My 1968 Bug
That is without the rubbers. They are crazy. I am maybe going to try and install them myself. Go to youtube, there is videos named clasic vw bugs. He shows in the one video on how to instal the windows, it doesn't look that dificult.

Re: My 1968 Bug
Just remember, do not try this on your own, have a couple of buddies over for a beer After windows are in, as you need a lot of hands Gently pushing constantly on the 4 corners of the glass, while you pull the nylon rope.
