A while back I posted an enquiry on 914 lights in relation to getting my six TUV certified in Germany. The car came from the States and is in overall fantastic shape. Trouble is it won't pass the TUV the way it is set up and well, as you can guess, the lights are the least of my worries!
The latest job is to install sway bars. Because my car has flared arches and wider wheels I must have sway bars fitted to meet the German regulations for the 916. I've been trying to get a hold of a complete set front and rear but have had no luck so far, so if any of you have a good set you want to get rid of let me know. I didn't think they'd be too hard to trace as I thought they were fitted as standard on '73 four cylinders and as an option on other years? Anyone know the history? Finally, are there after-market ones that I could use? I've seen ones from Weltmeister but these are different right? I'm sure I need factory originals... Thanks all, Ollie. |

The aftermarket bar will be much more performance oriented and allow you to setup the car to your liking based on driving style and preferences. Cost is probably pretty comparable to finding all the bits needed for the oem setup.
Once you're done passing TUV you should have one heck of a car! |
