so the PO of my new to me 914 says to me "the rear decklid won't stay shut"..............oh okay no big deal, I say.
Wrong! I think of myself as fairly capable, so it pains me to ask, but why is it that the plunger engages the striker but won't stay engaged (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I took the 2 pieces off the car, brought them together in hand, and can see them join, but even then won't stay together......whats the deal? Am I missing something here? I did notice the two points that join are not a square notch but more of an angled union (why I don't know) and there was wear on the 2 parts that slide past one another........... I'm stumped (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) |

A little booger weld a file will fix it. Or maybe you can find a replacement part.
