From a headroom standpoint, you should "just" fit. Perhaps a greater concern should be the difficulty getting in and out of the car. The seats are much lower than a bug, or even a Karmann Ghia. You need to see one and try it out. Perhaps there are Pumas close to you you that you could try out the seats? Where are you located?
Best regards,

I did look at one I saw on the samba that was in Illinois, but I think I have found a roadster ragtop.
In my porsche 356 with the tip on it was hard to get in and out and very little headroom, I drove it without the top unless I ran into bad weather.
I am going to try to buy the convertible so I'll have no problems.
Thanks to all for the help.
I'm 6'2" and have a '77 with the factory sunroof. I installed PRP roadster seats, and have just a couple of inches above my head...No sliders, just bolted to the floor...
Hi Joel
I drive a 1984 GTI in British Columbia Canada.
I am interested to have more details on your seat choice and source.
My GTI has 3,000 km on it with original brown leather seats.
I am 70 6’1 220lbs and find entry a little tight but comfortable one in the seat and stretched out.
