i'm new to all this 914 parts stuff, and i'm stumped with this one. what the heck is this part? what is its function? i found it under the passenger seat rail. it appears to be a plug or fastener of some kind, and has the word 'tenax' and a 'ghe' logo stamped on it. it's about the diameter of a nickel i guess.

It's the left innucleonic monotonator.

Mine runs fine without it.

Aaron hang onto that I will get it back from you next time I see you. It is a Tenax fastener. It holds tonneau covers or cabriolet tops onto the body.

As soon as I hit the "add reply" button, I thought to myself that you'd be the first one to reply.

Isn't that the knob that manually adjusts the Turbo boost? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

'Cause everyone knows that you can't turbo a 914 without that knob. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)

Yeah I'm a newbie but I can catch on fast sometimes.

So he's got one of those "limited edition" targa tops that snap on instead of latch on. Cool! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)
