Thought I'd throw up six shots (in three posts) of where, and how, I installed the fuel access panel form a late model (75/76) into the firewall between the front trunk and the fuel tank recess, in my 1970 914.

thread -serts just to give one more option you don't need (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
seriously, looks great. I really like the roofing sheet metal screws for this type of thing, the screw has a nice gasket washer built in, and you can get it in dicolors, such as green, to match your car. I like the Low Profile, Lap Tek from Mueller roofing metal: http://www.muellerinc.com/index.php |
