(IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) Hi all

I was reading a VW magazine and want to know are the disk brakes on 914 the same as later VW? The ones I was looking at are drilled for newer wheels. Also what other VW parts will fit on my 71 914. I will be working my 914 this winter and will be replacing things on it.
I just sent my daughter off to college in Boston so I am now on a VW budget not a Porsche one.

Is there a list I could get to help me on this question.

Thanks all

Tony

I think the front calipers are the same as the 411 as are the discs on a 71. Some of the interior switches are VW.
The engine is the same as the VW 411 1.7L.
The front tranny seal is off a bug tranny.
Some odds and ends here and there are VW but really not a lot of Bug/bus parts fit.
Oh yeah, my Nepal Orange paint color is the same as the 76 Bug paint color.
