914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ Wanted: 1970 Steering Column

Posted by: proto31 Dec 16 2009, 12:51 AM

I need a decent steering column from a 1970 4 cylinder, it needs to be a 12 pin type, apparently they went to a 14 pin in 1971. Let me know what you've got.

Thanks,

Dan

Dan,
Do you need just the plug?

Hey Mark, I need the entire steering column. The last thing I need to get my car started.

Check over on thesamba.com. The column is the same a the 70 Beetle.

If they are the same as a VW Bettle there are many of them in local Pick a Part yards.
Do you need the housing complete with turn signal switch? I think the 70 had the wiper switch on the dash, Right?

I need it complete with the housing and turn signal switch, the wiper switch was on the dash. I didn't think that the VW beetle column was the same, the 914 version had it's own 914 part number.

I have a wiper washer squirt switch that goes on the right side, and the turn signal switch that sits on the left side if you want.

How about a Karmann Ghia unit. That's my plan on my 71. It's almost exactly the same. At least I can't tell any diff.....

My bad. It is the KG unit not the Beetle.
