hi all,

i'm towing my 914 with a tow rope with a hook. It's 9pm my time so haven
t had the chance to look where to connect it.

i'm only towing 2 blocks, so i don't think it wont do much damage.

It's a 75 2.0, with the rubber bumper.

thanx

for 2 blocks with a tow rope you'll be fine.

(is it and A/C car with the front trunk floor all cut out and seriously weakening the stock tow hook area?)

There's a factory hoop on the underside of your trunk floor that would work miralces.

If it's an A/C car I would doubt that the front tow hook is there. It's not on mine.
