Hi, new guy again with a question or two: I'm trying to find out if the rear fog light mounting bracket for a 911 is the same for a 914? I've seen the 914 complete unit for sale many years ago on your site. AA has a Hella and a genuine Porsche unit. Will the 914 bracket fit both? Are the Hella and Porsche units identical? I put a wanted ad in today if someone might have both. Thanks again for all your help.

You can buy reproductions of the mount from 914Rubber.Com. I think you can even buy the lamp itself. The lamp requires a modification as the hole they put in it is in the wrong position. Fortunately, there is a boss in the right spot so drill there.
I never understood people who don’t understand why people would do a period correct mod to their car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) it’s not your car. You don’t get a vote. Here’s mine. It has the fog light and I went to a great deal of work to get it, including CAD drawings of original mounts and making 50 sets. Can’t seem to find a picture of the rear of my car so I threw in Eric’s. Attached thumbnail(s)  Attached image(s)
