currently locking mechanism broken*, if one never planned to park on a hill, should one bother fixing it?
as an anti-theft device, the steering wheel can be unlocked if enough force is used (I've done it by cranking on the wheel without too much effort) *can turn wheel with key out of ignition |

QUOTE(MattR @ May 25 2004, 06:24 PM) Now that thats out of the way, what 914s come with the left side ignition? welcome. 1970 and 1971 (which is to say almost all of them) 914.6 had ignition on the left side of the dash -- which is as expected since they used 911 columns and were built on the 911 line in Zuffenhausen. |
