1952-1967 Ragtop Sunroof Tensioning Hoops Rubber Sleeves Set of 6 115875519 - OEM Number(s) (115-875-519)
Restore the ragtop sunroof tensioning system on your 1952-1967 Volkswagen Beetle or 1956-1967 VW Bus with this European manufactured set of six rubber sleeves, the correctly ribbed replacements for the tensioning hoops on the original factory ragtop sunroof.
These Volkswagen ragtop sunroof rubber sleeves install onto the tensioning hoops that give the factory ragtop its proper shape and tension when closed. Original sleeves harden, crack, and split with decades of sun exposure and weather cycling, allowing the hoops to lose their grip and the ragtop to lose its correct profile.
European manufactured with the correct ribbed surface to match original VW ragtop hardware. Sold as a complete set of six so all tensioning hoop sleeves on the ragtop can be refreshed in one installation.

Because Details Matter: The ragtop sunroof is one of the most distinctive features ever offered on a Volkswagen Beetle or Bus, and the tensioning hoops with their rubber sleeves are what hold the shape of that ragtop when it is closed. Hardened or missing sleeves let the hoops slip and the ragtop lose its profile. The right European-made set with the correct ribbing brings the tensioning system back to factory function and gives your ragtop the proper shape it was built with.
