1973-1974 VW Karmann Ghia Convertible Smooth Vinyl Interior Kit

Smooth Vinyl

Smooth vinyl material was originally used by VW as early as 1956 and used all the way through 1979 models. It is called "Smooth" vinyl material that has a grain to simulate leather. We offer Black, Brown, Tan, Beige, Off White, Grey, Red, Blue, Bright White, Charcoal, Cream White, Dark Green, Chalk White, Saddle or Bright Red vinyl seat upholstery and door panels that have factory styled heat impressions for an original look.

Front & Rear Seat Upholstery

All of our seat upholstery is made with the finest quality materials, completely finished (no sewing required), and has extruded vinyl piping and padded heat-seams. Our Interior Kit includes front & rear upholstery with Basketweave Vinyl seating/backrest surfaces and matching Smooth Vinyl sides and back. You can buy with confidence knowing the seat upholstery is covered by a limited lifetime warranty against manufacturer defects.

Need Seat padding?
Seat padding is NOT included with kit, it must be purchased separately. Do not forget our replacement padding kit and burlap (click here to purchase separately) to achieve professional results. We will not sell that messy “horsehair” (actually coconut husk) fiber pads (that still require a layer of foam be installed on top of them) for padding. We know the horsehair was original for early VW's, but feel that high density foam is a superior product and there is a reason why "horse hair" is NOT used in cars today.

Front & Rear Door Panels

Our Door Panel sets includes both front door panels and matching rear quarter panels. Our panels are made with a thick masonite wood backing and are pre-drilled for window crank, door release mechanism and door panel clips. Extremely rigid and durable, Masonite lasts much longer than cardboard, which can easily bend when dampened by rain or snow. The material is lightly padded and feature stock style heat impressions. Our Door Panels look great and will easily outlast the cheap boards others sell with cardboard backing. A Limited Lifetime Warranty ensures your door panels will fit better, look newer longer and hold their quality for years.

Need Clips and Seals?

You may need to replace your existing door panel clips and seals when installing new door panels. Clips and Seals are NOT included with kit, you may reuse both as long as they are in good condition.

Clips and Seals are NOT included with kit but can be purchased separately.

Nylon Loop Automotive Carpet

Our carpet kits are made 1/4" tall, 250KPSI (knots per square inch) nylon threads for a full looking carpet that has great wear and stain resistance and the loop carpet features a FLW (fiber lock weave) Backing to hold the threads in place. "Loop" carpet is named as such as the yarns are looped up and down through the backing. Our interior kits are offered with Black, Brown, Blue, Charcoal, Red, Saddle, Maroon or Oatmeal carpet.

Full Interior Carpet Kits

Our carpet kits cover the complete interior compartment (up to the back seat) and behind the rear seat. They are made of high quality automotive grade carpet and feature a rubber backing. All carpet kits are yarn bound (which is much more durable than cloth or vinyl binding) and are designed to withstand years of use and continue looking great.

Note: Choose from Quality Standard or Super Premium.

The Super Premium Carpet kit includes heater grommets, a driver side footpad and scuff pad on the tunnel, as well as vinyl edged inserts for the gear shift, and hand brake boot. The fitment is the same for either carpet kit, the pre-cut Premium carpet kit is much easier to install with the key openings cut and trimmed.

Note: Choose with or without footrest.

It is important to note if your car has a footrest underneath the front passenger carpet. The footrest is a removable metal slope that originally mounted at the very front of the passenger side firewall. After 4 or more decades, cars that originally came with a footrest may have had it removed for some reason or another.
