These seem to be optional equipment.
Generally, where on the vehicle were they mounted?
In the earlier years i.e 1928ish to at least to 1932 they were an "add-on" per se' (as the were "required" in some countries) as opposed to built in. Here is where and how they fit on the "A" pillar partially obscured by the fog light on the left!!! By 33/34 they started either building them into the A Pillar OR putting them mounted just behind the door almost door handle height!!! As most VW fans know they were cared on through 1957 on all Euro spec VW's on the B Pillar of the bug half way up the side windows of the car.
