So my 914's backpad sits just below the rubber seal on the engine lid side of the rear glass—creating an ugly eye into the space under said seal as well as the butyl tape. In the past, I've hidden that gap with electrical tape "artfully" placed, but it ain't pretty.
Looks like I am not the first to do so… http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...&hl=backpad Wondering if there is a better way. Has anyone moved the backed up a bit to sit high enough to match up with the engine lid seal on the other side of the back window? Thanks!! |
