Well, I got the seats and backpad out now. I thought it was strange that my backpad didn't have the "dome light" in it. Then when I took it out, there was a set of wires there for it.
So, did 1970's have the "dome light" in the backpad? Otherwise, there is some standard rust (if you will).

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) unless what i see in the pictures is the lap-belt for the 3rd seat, your seat-belts are mounted in the wrong position. the "female" part should be mounted on the side of the center tunnel, not on the floor-board. the floor-board holes are for the 3rd seat lap-belt.

The color is Adriatic Blue (paint code L50E).

I'll check the seatbelt mounts tonight. I think you are seeing the 3rd seat belts however. The female part of the belt for the driver and passenger is on the side of the tunnel if I recall. So my backpad must have been redone at some point by a PO because it was missing the whole light assembly. The parking brake doesn't work (nor did it work when I got the 914). I really don't knwo why it doesn't work, but intend on fixing it after the strip-n-dip of the tub in acid (everything is coming out anyways). |
