Since everything is contained within the headlight bucket there's no need for the wiring seal. Carefully use a sharp blade, like a crescent X-acto blade, to cut the seal and remove the wiring.

398 viewsDuring our caravan towards home, with the T3's mixed within traffic, I was transported back to my childhood days when air-cooled Volkswagens were more prevalent. There were moments when I was swept up in nostalgia and the many trips our family made…"I have to go to the bathroom!" and "Are we there yet?" whispered in the air that enveloped our air-cooled time-machines.
