Thank you everyone who's been helpful on my journey of getting this 914 certified and on the road!
My next challenge is replacing the washer reservoir and pump, which a PO removed and replaced with a weird bracket (presumably to mount a universal aftermarket reservoir?) - see the pic below. I can easily find a reservoir and a 911/924 electric pump on ebay. Does anybody know what size tubing I'll need, and/or what size union nut fits the factory reservoir? Any other potential "gotchas" in trying to fix this system? Btw, the two wiring loom tubes that are in the way are feeding a pair of audio amps mounted in the front trunk which I'll most likely be removing...  |

Take one of the hose fittings to the local autoparts and see what they have.

Evil Bay is probably pricey. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) You should drop by if ever out this way. I'm South of Brantford in the town of Scotland. Hope you can join us at Mosport August 9th for parade laps. Please email me. John |
