I have one in my beetle, not sure if it would fit though.. that might be your best option though to find an old car with a similar shaped rear window and get one made for that..?? Mine just pushes into the window rubbers top and bottom.

Very nice Beetle. Had a pale blue 1200 a long time ago.

There's a company in the US that makes them so they may have a size that fits:

Blimey, give me a chance - you only sent me the message four hours ago - as in 4am my time. As mentioned in my reply to you, my Venice comment was only meant to be a joke.

That's where mine came from. They do a few differently sized ones for the different rear window sizes that beetles came in over the years. It might be worth contacting them to ask for dimensions, or to ask if they think you might be able to cut it down to size / shape.

Also just came across this on google search:

Whether they ship to other countries I don't know, but, again, you might find one that's a similar shape, or maybe they can make you one to fit as it is their main line of business..?

Did you manage to find a blind in the end or did you give up on the idea?
