*Since the Beetle has no 'boot',there's really nothing to reattach to.
*Without the 'reattachment',any pressure gain you might get from the VGs are eaten away at by the constant increase in interference drag and induced drag of the vorticity they produce.Gains could be 'negative.'

With the Beetle i have thought that the best place for a rear spoiler is not at the bottom of the glass where it is in stock configuration when mounted,
but at the bottom of the hatch itself, on the top of the bumper/ license plate indent about 24" below the rear glass.
