Howdy all, I noticed there are two styles of relay board covers. One that has a hole in the top where a post from the board goes through, and the other without the post or hole. Which is correct for a 74?

Other question, battery covers. I seen a partial rubber cover, and also a plastic cover. Which one should I use?

Thanks,

Tod

On my resto I have the non-hole'ed relay board cover WITH the elastic retaining strap. But I didnt understand your response Jeff, re the battery cover.
Are you saying a 74 wouldn't have one unless is was addressed by a dealer and a
"box" style cover was then applied according to a Porsche recall?
And that the "T" style early cover was not correct?

I'm not 100% certain when the "T" style cover was abandoned, though I suspect it continued into the 74 model year.

That style battery cover (T-styles with rubber hold down) was replaced on 914's that underwent the "campaign". It was generally replaced with a cobbled-up Audi battery cover (plastic, with several nips cut from it).

The relay board seems to have gone through a "transision" during the 74 era. Some had the hole & knurled nut, some like yours. Anything prior to 74 should have the knurled nut.

Help?
