On 1968 and later Beetles, the air intake grille (located just behind the hood) allows air into the cabin, but it also collects water during rain or car washes. This 20mm internal diameter (ID) hose connects to the bottom of the air box, ensuring that moisture is safely diverted rather than overflowing into your interior carpets or trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eOver time, the original rubber hoses become brittle, crack, or get clogged with pine needles and road debris. A failed drain hose is one of the leading causes of \"mysterious\" wet floorboards and rusted heater channels. This high-quality reproduction hose features the correct 20mm diameter to ensure a snug, leak-proof fit on the factory plastic or metal drain nipples.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"8\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDetailed Vehicle Compatibility\u003c\/b\u003e This hose is designed for the updated fresh air systems found in late-model Type 1 chassis:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eVW Beetle (Standard):\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\"\u003e1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eVW Super Beetle:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12,0,0\"\u003e1971, 1972\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eProduct Highlights \u0026amp; Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDurable Pliable Rubber:\u003c\/b\u003e Resists engine heat and environmental ozone to prevent premature cracking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePrecise 20mm ID:\u003c\/b\u003e Matches factory specifications for a secure friction fit without the need for bulky clamps in tight spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMoisture Management:\u003c\/b\u003e Essential for protecting your interior upholstery and preventing rust in the lower dash area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDirect OE Replacement:\u003c\/b\u003e Sold individually; typically, two hoses are required per vehicle (one for each side of the air box).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"16,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/b\u003e 111-819-543\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"16,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eInside Diameter (ID):\u003c\/b\u003e 20mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"16,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Black Rubber\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"16,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"16,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/b\u003e Fresh Air Intake Box to Body Drain\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Maintenance Tips\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"18\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"18,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"18,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eClear the Debris:\u003c\/b\u003e Before installing the new hose, reach into the fresh air box and clear out any muck or leaves.
