If you like the aluminum look, replace the button on the T-1 parking brake lever with the nut that holds the wiper arm on the type 2 ('68 on) I polish them a little.

2 ('68 on)OEM Custom... what a concept!
Love the idea
It's even a bit shorter that the plastic button. almost recessed. low profile.

Awesome, would like to see a collection of "keep it in the family" tricks like this.. Heck I'd even allow watercooled VW's as sources.... I'll give one example: if your later model beetle does not have "night/day" position lever on the rear view mirror, you can take the mirror from an early watercooled VW, it has the exact same twist-on mount. I got mine off of a Passat for my 74. :)

for my rear viewing I over laid the original mirror with a wide angle one. It's nice and still pivots. I don't drive at nite or in the rain.
