From what I have read, they seem to be an optional extra. All squares have the wire to connect it, but only if you had it fitted.

But that info could be wrong...does anyone else know more about the
?

It's gotta be same as the interior light abovethe door opening at a guess... If not same as something vw from same era... Be able to help once I'm home...

Hoping there is one in the 64 I just bought... So might e able answer once I see that...

Unless Someone has an easier answer...

I had one in the type 3 I just sold. Was in mint condition. Actually the whole interior was pretty much mint in that square.
