Does anyone here know if the VW cigarette lighter cap linked below fits the 914 switch handle? I.e., is it the same one as was used in the 914? I bought one direct from Porsche and it's very nice but it is not correct for the 914 (has an image of a smoking cigarette on it and the original had the zippo lighter on it).

the coffin nail with the smoke coming off it came in with the golfs.
914 had the earlier VW version that went in bugs and 60s VWs. the stylish ronson symbol. probably a krautrock joke on sherman tanks? i've seen the old style version, same as your linked to, once or twice for sale on VW sites for proper restorations. the both fit in the lighter knob as the knob itself didn't change as far as i know. should work. |
