In doing my research prior to replacing the original fuel lines with stainless ones, I've gotten the impression that the originals were installed with a couple sets of metal hold-down tabs inside the center tunnel. With my shifter removed, I've found one set immediately adjacent to the shifter towards the passenger-side door. But is there a 2nd set, and if so, where is it located?
Thanks |

I guess one good thing about having a car all rusted to hell is that when you cut it open to repair, you wind up with lots of photos showing these hidden bits. You should be able to make out the tabs on the right side of the tunnel 2 channel beads up on the right hand panel. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-20845-1516647600.jpg) Ok, that makes it easy to figure out thanks. So that I am clear the panel on the left would be the front of car (footwell) and the panel on the right is the back 1/2 under the seats ? Do I see clips actually on both of those panels ? So 2 sets of clips ... |
