"Dehne" Digital Fuel Gauge Bezel

A necessary complement to our "Dehne" digital fuel gauge unit. "Classic" in look and feel, it is laser cut from 0.8 mm thick steel to the same specifications as the original pieces.


Mounting holes and slot are also pre-cut, and each piece is pre-primered for corrosion protection and paint preparation. All you have to do is paint and install.

Compatible with Type 1's (1958 to 1967) or standard Beetle's through to 1977. If you have not already done so, why not purchase both our "Dehne" digital fuel gauge and bezel and give your "Bug" a hint of modernity while still maintaining its "Classic" integrity.
