So I made the “mistake” of looking more carefully at my problem child blue 914 today. When the DPO tried to repair the hell how damage they put a flat piece of metal where the passenger side rear donut goes.
They also used an incorrect piece of metal where the jacking point goes. I have good long/jack receiver donor metal as pictured. So - am I better off replacing the donut area or the jack receive point of the long? Thanks!  |

Thanks for the confirmation.
Ordered the metal repair piece, interestingly these are apparently not support to be used for jacking points according to an earlier thread here. |

Every VW I've owned (including the 914) uses a similar jacking method ... that's where the stock VW jack fits (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |
