Bill,
Thanks for the offer! This time I'll check out the WW product. I normally
like to go with original whenever I can. But it's good to know where a
"real" one is just in case this one isn't quite right. The WW catalog
doesn't say whether it's NOS, a reproduction, a Brazilian, or what.

Send me address. I have a 67 one that is not too bad a shape.it goes on rear
seat upright and has a chrome latch and a hook. When seat is folded down it
latches to bar that is in front of seat bottom. Only 2" is still grey color
and rest is faded to tan.

Hi, Jack,
Nope, not it. That 885-585V56 67 RP part is the rubber loop strap that held
the rear seatback upright in earlier beetles and Ghias. The system was
later replaced with metal latches.
The strap I need is like a 1" webbing belt, about 18" or so long, with an
adjusting buckle, that holds the seatback down flat when it's folded over
forward.
Thanks, but I'm still looking.
Bert

If it is the same as the one on a Ghia, try Karmann Ghia Parts & Restoration
Part #: 885-585V56 67 RP
