I have an early '73 2.0 with a build date 12/72.
I believe my 914 should have the molded hard foam under the carpet in the passenger side footwell at the bulkhead. I'm exploring the idea of putting a small subwoofer in that piece of foam. When I pull the carpet back in the footwell it's just the metal firewall. There's no foam there. Maybe it was removed at some point? In a parts lot I bought a while back, there was piece of hard molded foam that I assumed was for the footwell. However, when I pull the carpet back and try to put the foam there it does not seem to fit that space. Do I need to remove the speaker unit in that footwell and/or the center console to get this piece of foam in that space? Is that why it's not wanting to fit? Or do I have the wrong year foam? Is something else the issue?  |

There is an early and a late version. I have both but I'm not sure which is which. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)
