What is this part called?
1973-79 Beetle Seat Rail Guide Bushing Kit
What does this part do on a VW?
This kit contains the guide bushings that fit into the seat runner rails on later Volkswagen Beetle models. They reduce friction and wear between the seat frame and the sliding rails, allowing the seats to move smoothly forward and backward. Over time, the original plastic or nylon guides wear out or break, leading to loose or sticky seat movement. Replacing them restores proper seat adjustment function and stability.
