The VW rear engine to body seal is used in conjunction with the firewall seal to prevent hot air from entering the engine compartment and as such is a crucial part to keeping the air
cooled engine cool. It fits in the groove around the rear and sides of the engine and installation requires removing the engine or most of the engine tin. This seal fits 1954 through
1966 Beetles, 1956 through 1966 Karmann Ghias and 1955 through 1971 Type 2 Bus models. The seal is intentionally made longer than needed and will have to be trimmed down at either end
where it meets the firewall seal. Original Part # 111813705A
