Looking for the flat and V shaped plates that secure the hinge mount to the body on a 60’s Beetle.

I don't think they really changed through the years...any year should do?

The straight flat plates are the same, not sure when the V shaped stiffeners appeared. I’d guess anything around 1960 and up will work. Do you have any?

I don't have any, but want to confirm that they started use the V shape from chassis 115 000 001>>
So '65 & up.

I found a pair of the small flat plates but am still looking for the V plates.
