I know this has been discussed before, but there was no thread specific to the issue and I couldn’t find the discussion. So, I wanted to post one that others can find. Bottom line, I don’t know the scope or differences among years and models, but the wiring harness snorkel sold by 914 rubber, definitely does not fit my 74. @Mikey914 any chance you’d be willing to make one with a proper size top for whatever years have this size? Or, does anyone know a source for one that will fit my 74? |

(i ask this as i have a 74 so would not have a clue what earlier cars are like). but if the hole is the problem. weld in a suitably sized washer to the underside of the engine shelf as a reducer. paint to match. |

Too long and the top flare is way too small. I’d rather pay for someone to make a batch of the right dimensions and sell them here myself to the benefit of everyone with a 74+ than arbitrarily mod the car. I’m going to start looking into injection molding companies. Lots of them can 3D print molds now that significantly reduce tooling costs for small batch parts. |

I would be happy to have them on my website if you do. |
