I need to replace my rusted out doors on my 6.
I mounted what I believe is a late (75) door which went on no problem. I was looking through my parts to locate a striker for the late door and came across three different types. One is the early style for sure the two others I'm not sure about. I looked it up in my Restore's guide book but only see two out of the three. Part #'s are the same but one has the letter E other F. Any one here know which is which ? One has a straight stop the other a with a few bends in it. TIA.. Attached image(s)

All the VW numbers stayed the same. They letter denotes the version. One in the first picture is the late 73-76. Second one looks like the middle version. Early version has no side piece. They should be clear (silver) zinc.

Early version has no side piece. They should be clear (silver) zinc. I know what the early strikers look like. I'm replacing my early rusted out, beyond repair doors with a set of later doors that I have on hand. I need to figure out which later version of strikers to use with the doors. The doors that I have came off a 75 parts car. I have both sets of late/mid year strikers on hand. I had a bunch of stuff cad plated and these where in the pile. I know it's not the correct plating. I'm working on getting a correct set from Bruce. I just need to figure out which ones first. |

Use the later one with the curve.
