there are 3 options that work well.
1 buy drop spindles - this is probably the most expensive option but it is also the best option. you don't compromise any suspension when you use this method.
2 have adjusters installed - this is a fairly good option. this way you can adjust the height of the bug in minutes. from really low, to stock height. [ you can also use them to raise a but]
3 have your beam cut and turned - this is however irreversible. you have the beam welded to a lower position and it cannot be adjusted back to stock.

This will cause your tires to fall WAY out of alignment... Thesamba.com has some vendors that make complete drop kits, I got my 3" drop on my 66 bus for around 500 usd... There are alot of aftermarket drop springs and coil-over kits out there, you just gotta find the right application that suits your driving style...

Is it possible to replace a 1970 Karmann Ghia seat with a 1970 VW Bettle seat?
yes I would not recommend doing this, as the seat frames are different, a bug seat is higher than a Ghia seat, not sure if the bug seat and ghia seat have the same frame rails, however, might be a problem with headroom. The Ghia is substantially lower than a bug, the front seat area is both wider, and a bit longer than on a bug, and seats would generally not be considered interchangeable.

The difference is in the front. The Super had a strut front end vs. the shock towers on the standards. The spare tire also lays flat in a super. From the "A" pillar back the super and standard are the same car.
