I grabbed the sample from the shop before they were done. They will have the correct ends when were done. Thanks for the heads up.

Update: After lots of trial and error we found it best to use an aggressive locking washer rather than trying to machine the ridges in to the shafts.

We make all of the bushings to rebuild these on the 911. But on the 914 they are pressed together and would have to be drilled out. Luckily all if the bushings were in great shape on my assembly.

The old boot was not in too bad of shape but was starting to crack so I replaced it. Tip for instilling the wires. Put the boot in hot water for a minute to soften it up. Us a little wire lube. Work the 1st connector in and then push it in with next one so they are both sliding in at the same time. Push the rest of the way in using needle nose pliers.

Actually, that is incorrect!

The holes in the front trunk are supposed to have longer rubber tubes in them that allow water to flow out of the trunk.

I removed the same part from the holes to take these photos. It came up while I was working on the parts list for the new website with Bruce Stone. The PET shows the same part number in 2 applications. One to stop the upward travel on the engine deck lid and the other in this location. I have yet to find where the drain tubes are in the PET. Is there possibly a variation in years?

We make that part too but this is what I was finding in the PET. Any help in getting this figured out is greatly appreciated.
