The pan is the same for a saden as a convertible (-jacl points) its the body that has the reinforcement rails.

Decode the chassis number stamped on the tunnel, under the rear seat.
the 2nd # on a later beetle convertible pan will be a 5

how about a Ghia, 1969 ?
the ghia body had the reinforcements.... the rockers had an extra stiffening panel in them, where the beetles had an add-on stiffening rail.
