I have on of those black plastic covers for the battery.
 How are they held on? I am told by a rubber band? Seem a bit odd. |

The battery cover shown above is the earlier style from the first recall 9J in October 1970. The later HO recall in 1977 featured the later smooth top style battery cover which just snapped on and did not have the rubber band. Of course either is correct for a 914 but if your car was around for the 1977 HO recall that’s the most current version, especially if you have the HO sticker in the front trunk.
