Hi all,
Here's some of what I need to start to wrap up this phase of my 914 project:
- Uncracked alternator to cooling shroud rubber duct/hose
- The two clips that hold the license plate bracket to the rear bumper. I'll buy the bracket too if you want to sell it as a set
- Bumper tow hook block-off cap
- Flaps w/ connecting rod for cooling shroud
Hmm, think that's it!
I'm in N. California, 95401
Thanks in advance,
Randy

If you don't care about originality you can get the lic plate bracket clips from any auto parts store, also often Ace Hardware or Orchard Supply hardware. (Home Depot doesn't have them, I checked yesterday)

Hi Randy,
I believe I have a set of flaps with connecting rod. I will look tonight and let you know.

I recently picked up one of these. Rubber boot is good, but the clamp that comes with it is just a standard hose clamp bent into a D shape. I found the original clamp fit much better, so I just reused it instead.

Good to know! I still have my cracked OEM boot, so I'll use that.
Ended up ordering from AirHeadParts.com as it was a bit cheaper there and shipping was more reasonable as well.
Cheers,
