Might anyone know a) if there should be some sort of trim cap on the bolt that is exposed through the firewall pad and located just forward of the main relay board (see photo) and b) if so, its part number? I don't see it in any of the parts diagram and I'm not sure what it's connecting to on/in the firewall. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
Mine's been "open" for several decades but not sure if there was a cap that fell off or it's just "open". At least I've finally gotten around to cleaning it up (after the photo).

The wipers! Will send pic tomorrow. The “bent” arm one goes on the drivers side; the straight arm one goes on the passenger side. When correct, the geometry makes sense.
Also, a 1.8 made just a few vin numbers before mine is here and has the charcoal can in the front. Will send pics on that thread tomorrow, too. FYI, @wonkipop

good another data point.
get the K# as well as the VIN if you can.

the derelict one in a back yard that was posted up a couple of weeks ago was a engine bay can with an earlier VIN than 2 charcoal can ones i found last year.
i'd say there is a bit of overlap going on if you used VIN numbers, but K#s might tell a slightly different story. unfortunately the derelict one had no K# info with it.

ps - i thought everyone knew about the wipers. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
must be common mistake to get them the wrong way around.

hope you all had some fun on your run.
must be amusing to be able to get a swarm of 914s all in one place.
