Checking the web, it appears to be a one-year part.  however,  the main 
change seems to be the plastic wiring guide.  Does anyone know  if the other 
parts are interchangeable with other years, or even with a Bug  part?  
Cannibalizing a new unit and the ’71-unique parts may be another  path to a “like 
new” working unit.
 
Phil, I've  used the turn signal half of a 72 and later unit to do  repairs 
(replacement) on both 70 and 71's (both 1 year only parts). :O  The key is 
re-using the 70 or 71 "crush tubes" for the turn signal, as  the 72 and 
later tubes are too long (they have to pass thru the wiper switch).  This might 
open a couple of options for you. ;-)
