Clean up your front-end assembly with this Billet Aluminum Steering Box Cover. Standard steering box housings are often rough, industrial-looking castings that are difficult to clean and even harder to plate or paint. This CNC-machined cover provides a high-end, polished look without the expense and downtime of custom chroming.

Designed specifically for a "nothing to hide" chassis, this cover slips over the factory-style housing to instantly transform the look of your steering assembly. It's the perfect finishing touch for show-quality builds, narrowed beam installs, or anyone looking to add a bit of detail to their front-suspension metalwork.

Vehicle Fitment

  • VW Beetle (Type 1): 1961–1977 (steering boxes 113-415-061C or 113-415-061CBR)

  • VW Karmann Ghia: 1961–1974

  • VW Type 3: 1962–1973

For use only with steering box part numbers: 113-415-061C (OEM German) and 113-415-061CBR (EMPI). Will not fit Super Beetle (MacPherson strut) or other steering box types.

Key Features

  • Billet Aluminum Finish: CNC-machined for a precise fit and a brilliant, long-lasting shine.

  • Instant Detail: Provides a custom look without disassembling or chroming the entire steering box.

  • Precision Fit: Engineered specifically to fit the most common VW steering box configurations.

  • Easy Installation: Slips over your existing compatible housing — no special tools required.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I know which steering box I have? Look on the housing for the part number. The OEM German box is stamped 113-415-061C; the EMPI replacement is 113-415-061CBR. Both work with this cover.

  • Will this fit a Super Beetle? No — Super Beetles use a different MacPherson strut steering system.

  • Do I need to remove the steering box to install? No. The cover slips over the existing housing while it's mounted.

  • Will this work with our rebuilt German steering box? Yes — our Precision Rebuilt German Steering Box (gid://shopify/Product/8191714197619) already includes a polished billet top cover, but this EMPI cover is the ideal upgrade for stock or other rebuilt boxes.

  • Polished or raw billet? Brushed/polished aluminum finish from EMPI — will hold a shine with periodic polishing, or can be left to develop a satin patina.

Functional, Look Great
Color: Brown
These were nice corner shelves that were easy to install, and look great. There are plenty of other options on Amazon that offer more shelves and/or at a lower price, but these ones look nicer than most. Overall they're pretty easy to install. It's not exactly a two-person job, but it is easier if you have help - someone to hold the shelf and a level, and the other to mark the holes. My only other recommendation is to check your L-brackets before you do anything. Some come bent inward, some bent outward. If they're really crooked it will make it hard to wedge the shelf into the corner and may result in uneven measurements/holes, so make sure you straighten them out first.

great shelves
Color: C. White - Modern Minimalist Style, Number Of Shelves: 3, Size: 36inches
These are a a great set of floating shelves! They were easy to install, feel sturdy, and look clean and modern on the wall. The set of three is perfect for displaying decor, photos, plants or small storage items while adding extra space without taking up room. Great quality, stylish, and a simple way to upgrade any space. They work perfect for my figurines to be displayed.
