In my quest to add a little LESS noise to my car, (and add a little rain protection when I drive 2000 miles in March to go to Amelia Island) I am swapping my cooler looking GT lid for the stocker with the rain tray. I even have added the engine side (modern) firewall mat from 914Rubber.
What size bolts or screws attach the rain tray to the engine lid?  Zach |

I like allen head screws. Easier to install if you use masking tape to the screw head and alken wtench. |

Not as cool but it looks pretty good.
And there is significantly less in-cabin noise now. Mostly all exhaust note. I need to buy the funnels and hoses (which I’m pretty sure 914Rubber has.)  This may be the first time since the day I bought the car (14 years ago tomorrow - holy shit!) that the thing has had a rain tray. Zach |

Too late I didn't see this Zach,
I'd be happy to throw in some hardware when you order the funnels if you still need. -Mark |

I got you covered. |
