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

Any Pics of the Box style? I think I had and tossed one because it was in bad shape, anyone with a good one? What was the "campaign" for?

The "campaign"'s pupose was to replace the T-style battery cover and its rubber wand so that rain water could not enter the engine drill, washing over the battery posts and drip down onto the fuel lines, causing a fire hazard. Good idea, but poorly implemented.

What you got, in the mid-70's when the program was active, was a new set of injector elbows, new clamps, and an Audi battery cover that was chopped to fit the top of a 914 battery. Crude, but functional. My understanding is that this recall is still active.

In my humble opinion, the cobbled up Audi battery cover was so crude & gross that I've retro'd to the original!
