Trunk Carpet Kit, 1 Piece, for Beetle 60-67, Black

EMPI Trunk Carpet Kit for 1960-1967 VW Beetle

Product Overview

The EMPI 1-piece trunk carpet kit is the ideal solution for finishing the front luggage compartment of your classic Volkswagen. This black automotive-grade carpet is designed to cover the trunk floor and the spare tire area, providing a clean, professional look while protecting the metal surfaces of your vehicle. It is a direct replacement or upgrade for worn-out factory liners.

Vehicle Fitment and Compatibility

This kit is precision-cut to fit the specific contours of the early-to-mid sixties Beetle. It is compatible with the following models:

• 1960-1967 VW Beetle Sedan
• 1960-1967 VW Beetle Convertible

Please note that this is a 1-piece kit and does not include a separate spare tire cover. For a complete restoration, ensure your trunk area is free of moisture before installation.

Pro Tech Tips for Installation

Tip 1: Flatten the Material. Before installation, remove the carpet from the packaging and lay it flat in a warm area or under direct sunlight for about 30 minutes. This softens the backing and allows any shipping creases to relax, making it much easier to mold to the trunk contours.

Tip 2: Surface Preparation. For the best results, thoroughly clean the metal trunk floor with a degreaser or wax and grease remover. Removing old adhesive residue and dirt ensures that your new carpet lays flat and stays securely in place if you choose to use adhesive.

Tip 3: Adhesive Application. While some enthusiasts lay the carpet in loosely, we recommend using a high-quality automotive spray adhesive for a permanent, wrinkle-free fit. Apply the adhesive to both the metal floor and the back of the carpet, wait for it to become tacky, and then press firmly starting from the center and working your way out to the edges.
