Brakes are further down the list right now. That's a Carrera front end bolted on. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Too much rotor, too heavy. The idea is to find a nice set of S-Calipers and 20mm rotors and remove the odd "front" bias valve. Phase 2. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Eric...I still have a nice set of 911s light alloy calipers if you need ! Marty |

James, it is indeed your quarter panel. If that car hs good longs you can always put a complete QRS kit on it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (more on that in our next build thread). Thanks for the good metal!! Longs were solid front to rear, cut them out in one piece and they went to Guy to patch up his -6 project. The problem with that car was the floor pan (and shoddy PO repair of it along with a lot of other hidden gems) More work then it was worth it to me and I came across that donor chassis that is now the purple car to replace it. Original windshield was cleanly removed and then broken a month later by me when I forgot I stored it under my autox car *DOH* The 1.7 and side shift got cleaned up and went in the purple car for my wife. Wish I had known about your wiring issues, I managed to pull the entire harness out of that car in one piece. This is all that was left when I threw it on the back of someones pickup truck for scrap. You better get started on another project soon, I only have one more car left to get rid of! |

Wiring harnesses built and run for the Cibie hood lights. The harness was wrapped and put through grommets and run down to the hinge plates.
(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/scontent-b-pao.xx.fbcdn.net-1110-1387903789.1.jpg) Hard to see in this crappy photo but, the harness feeds into a couple of disconnect plugs so the owner can swap hoods. These will run to an additional factory fog light switch and a relay with a hot lead directly off the battery. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/scontent-b-pao.xx.fbcdn.net-1110-1387903791.2.jpg) Off come the 4-cylinder mounts to make way for the custom hardlines. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/scontent-a-pao.xx.fbcdn.net-1110-1387903791.3.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/scontent-b-pao.xx.fbcdn.net-1110-1387903791.4.jpg) Did someone say custom hard lines? These were straight because Mike has a set of 914ltd longitudinal kits with no jack posts. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/scontent-b-pao.xx.fbcdn.net-1110-1387903791.5.jpg) New stainless steel hardlines run through the tunnel as nature intended! The PO had both the fuel lines and the oil lines bolted to the floorboards running under the car...

Help! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/scontent-b-pao.xx.fbcdn.net-1110-1387903315.1.jpg) Didn't want to text you as its almost midnight! When you said early I thought you meant pre 73, but just finished going through that spare 72 harness and that piece you need does not exist there. Looking at parts catalogs it seems that 70-71 had a different turn signal switch looks like the switch side of that connector is 91161212202 but I can not find any part number for the chassis side. I think you are on a hunt for a pretty odd ball part here. I can bring by a later harness if you want to convert to the more common switch. |

Eric,
Would you mind showing a pic of how to ran the wires for the hood lights from the hinge to the lights? I'm planning on doing the same thing and I'm thinking of going through the hood itself, but not sure if its worth the trouble. Thanks for your help. Mike |

Hey Mike,
If you look at post #26 the first picture is the grommet where the hood lights will mount. The second picture is the grommet where it exits by the hinge. |

Rich saves the day and the 12-pin connector is back and working like a champ. We have turn signals, low beams, high beams and parking lights. It was a good day but, like many things on old sports cars... it took about a month just to source the right parts for the needed job!
