Back home again, and back to work on the 914. A few things arrived while I was gone, including a cigarette lighter to replace the one I can't find.

I also made a new set screw for the odometer reset knob. The original hole in the know was stripped out. I had a length of M4 stud with a screw groove in one end.

I drilled a larger hole in the knob and got out my metric taps.

Next up: installing the gauges and connecting the last bits of wiring harness. Here is the gauge panel, with satin black powder coating.

More new stuff: LED light bulbs. I plan to replace all possible original bulbs. I did order the wrong bulbs for the instruments, so have to try again (and wait).

Time to get going on the motor. First, I needed holes in my new Type 4 yoke. A good job for my big drill press.

This is the heftiest job I have tried so far with the press--not any problem at all.
