As i'm busy stripping out my complete interior i came across some, non-OEM stuff
The previous owner has installed 2 speakers in the passenger foot well, just under the feet of the passenger. He made a construction of wood and expanding foam like used in construction. But underneath this all, there was a different kind of foam, which looked more or less the age of the car. I was wondering if there was something like this originally. Anyway, it's broken as the guy "made" room for the speakers. Any clues on how i should restore this foam? I was just wondering if i should replace it, or just take it completely out. (And if i take it completely out, will my brand new set of carpet still fit?) ![]() |

I'd be more concerned with the "foam", than the tunnel cover (which is covered by carpet & not seen).
The foam is NOT correct - in any 914. I suspect that the PO, who installed the audio sytem, thought it would make the stereo sound more balanced. regardless, it needs to go. It isn't original, but be careful how you remove it - don't want to slice up the floor. If it were mine, I'd shave it down with cheap, disposable razors as far as possible. You COULD then use brake cleaner to remove the remainder, but it may smear. I'd probably go as far as possible with the razors & forget about it. Have to admit, this is the first time I've seen this!
