Hey, Hi everyone. I'm a newbie. Joined this morning but have had the car since 1983. Its a 75 1.8 - white. I found this site a couple weeks ago after hitting the tire store. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) I guess they dont make 165SR15's any more. But, thats a question for another day. Riviera rim rub. What I need to take care of first is the engine pad. Does anybody know what's the best adhesive to use? I've never been able to get a good bond that lasts. It's starting to peel again on the dirvers side and only being held up by the fan hose. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)
Thanks.
Tom

if you can live without the added noise reduction, i'd rip it out.

they're a moisture trap and usually, after all these years, the firewall is pretty much rusted through at the bottom of the pad on almost all cars i have seen ...

no idea on the adhesive tho ...

oh, and welcome to the club!
