Good afternoon everyone,

I question if I may. I have just been watching Ian Karr's new video on Youtube on his 914/6 project and it reminded me to ask you good people a question.

Just above the door lock in the door jamb there is a hole/tube, what is that for? It appears to go up into the sail but not into the engine bay.

I have just had a look at my car, shined a torch into the entry hole but there is no light to be seen.

Enjoy your Sunday afternoon. - Tony
