You're in luck. The reverse lockout is built into the base of the 
shift lever. Pull up your carpet, unscrew the knob, pull off the 
rubber boot, and unbolt theshift plate.

Take a look at what you find. If you need a part, I and probably many 
others here will have one, or I think a beetle part from a junkyard 
is the same.
