We have made all of the parts needed to restore your pop up headlights. We are just finalizing the headlight adjuster screws (that are always stripped out.)
We have made: -New white and black headlight surrounds -New Pivot Shaft bushings -New Push Rods (for the Late Cars) -New Splash Guards (for the Early Cars) -New Brush's -New Adjuster Screws (These are still in process so they will not be in the kits. You will be able to order them later if you need them) -New Adjuster Blocks -Color matched paint for restoring the housing -Option for new LED Headlights -Option for New Headlight Globes -New "Eyebrow" Grommets -New Cad Plated 2 hole and 3 hole backing plates. -New improved Headlight Wiring Harness grommets -New Wiring Harness Anti Chafing edge protectors (for Late cars) This should be a great project and satisfying to complete. You can buy most of these parts now on the new website but we will have a group buy for the Restoration Kit for 914 World Members first. Who wants one?

I know we are still working out pricing by what's in the "kit" we are trying to get the adjuster screws for the headlight complete, but having some machining issues. Yes we will offer the V2 rocket kit with as many parts as we can get as well as just the surrounds. That's why it's taking a little longer to put this together. We are also trying to do this on the new site so that there will be a "menu" that will allow for variations on the kit. So just surrounds, early / late pivit arm bushings / arms, the early brushes, with rubber flap and even holder and screw, with the H4 LEDs who what them, new plated backing plates and hardware fro the mounts, and even the paint for the substructure.
SO it's probably gonna be a few more days and the adjuster screws will be a few weeks out still, but we are also making improvements on them too! The idea is make as complete of a kit as possible. That and Matt is putting together some instructions that will be ready after we get the 1st step of this together. I appreciate your patience, but I think you will find it worth the wait. -Mark |
