Crystal Clear Visibility: VW Windshields & Safety Glass
The windshield is one of the most critical components of your vehicle's exterior, providing structural integrity and essential visibility. Over decades of travel, original glass often suffers from "pitting" caused by road debris, sandblasting, or the inevitable cracks that compromise safety. VW Windshields from Appletree Auto are manufactured to provide the optical clarity and precise fitment required for a high-quality restoration. Whether you are replacing the flat glass of an early Beetle or the iconic curved windshield of a Super Beetle, our inventory provides the dependable safety glass your project deserves.
Technical Precision for Every Model Year Our selection is tailored to meet the evolving design standards of the air-cooled era, ensuring you get the exact glass for your specific chassis:
Model-Specific Fitment: We stock windshields for the Beetle, Type 2 Bus, and Karmann Ghia. This includes the distinct variations in glass height and curvature that occurred throughout the production years, ensuring a perfect seat within your window rubber.
Super Beetle Curved Glass: For owners of the 1973 and later Super Beetle, we provide the specialized curved windshield. This glass is engineered to match the unique header and cowl lines of the "Big Window" cars, maintaining the aerodynamic profile of the late-model interior.
Clear & Tinted Options: Choose between classic Clear glass for a period-correct factory look or Tinted options (often featuring a shaded top band). Tinted glass helps reduce cabin heat and glare, making for a more comfortable driving experience during long summer cruises.
Laminated Safety Glass: All our windshields are manufactured from high-quality laminated safety glass. This construction ensures that in the event of an impact, the glass remains intact, providing an essential layer of protection for you and your passengers.
The Essential Safety Upgrade A new windshield does more than just look good; it transforms the driving experience. Eliminating decades of scratches and chips reduces eye strain and improves nighttime visibility. When combined with new window rubber, a replacement windshield ensures a weather-tight seal that protects your dash and interior from moisture. Sourced from manufacturers who understand the technical demands of the vintage VW market, these windshields offer the durability and aesthetic accuracy that enthusiasts expect.
