This is great!
I think someone replaced the switch at some point in MY convertible Beetle. I figured it was the pump in the trunk? But this gives me something to go after that is different. Great video much appreciated!
Glad it helped
This video is excellent. Thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Welcome 👍
I have a 2008 VW Beetle 2.5 S manual soft top convertible ( not electric) . The safety latches on both sides at the back in back windows do not lock down the roof once it's folded down in the back. Any idea on how I can fix the problem or find the latches ?
No, I don't, but if I come across something, I will let you know.

Please show how to get the panel off
Hello, unfortunately that car doesn't belong to me, I only had it for that day. Sorry, I am not able to show that for you. Thanks for watching.
How much is the part? How much will it be for this kind of jod?
About $660 new
used from Ebay $130 - $200
(The one I installed in the video was from Ebay.)
Labor, I would say 2 - 3 hours.
Most of the cost would be in the diagnostics and that depends on how quickly they find what is wrong.
Replacing the part is about a 45 min. job.
Every shop has a different labor rate, but average price $140 an hour.
So about $420 in labor.
This is just an estimate.
Hopefully you can follow along on my video so you can save some money.
I hope this helps.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you. I will watch your video over and over and will see if I'm brave enough to do it. It doesn't look that hard to do. 😊 Ah, what's the name of the part.
