I'm was swapping the the head light switch from a 73 to 74, and there is one less terminal on the 74 switch. I guess I have to trace the diagrams (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) to figure out what is left out..unless someone happens to know... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

got a laugh as I looked up the price for the little switch on pelican..it's $433, which is more than I paid for the car!!

not as easy as I hoped, there are several wires left over from the dash panel swap too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stromberg.gif)

Porsche "Simplified" the wiring on 74' 914's. You'll also notice the door pin switches are different among many other little things, switches, less wires was there goal.
