Simon,
It depends on which your 914 originally had for Shocks & Struts/Inserts All Springs were black AFAIK, Boge Shocks/Struts/Inserts were black or dark gray, Bilstein Shocks/Struts/Inserts were kind lime green (yellow nowadays), Konis Shocks/Struts/Inserts were reddish-orange, .... & the Koni & Bilstien inserts made for Boge struts were their respective colors, but hidden inside. It was/is common to "upgrade" from the softer stokc base lever Boge shocks/inserts - to either Konis or Bilsteins (KYB are white & stands for Krap IMHO). Most 914s came with the base stock Boge set-up. Hope this helps! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Tom /////// |
