Have fun with these.
Mine were tough to get right....still working on fine tuning the fit.
Hopefully yours will just pop in with little adjustment.

Give us a review of the URO Part...

I am very pleased with the fit and finish of everything I have received.
The bright work aluminum parts are indistinguishable from OEM.

I have one of their HD 914/6 engine mounts on my race car and it has held up perfectly for a season now.

tonight I was able to get the carpet finished with the help of my friend Matt.
I should say that I assisted Matt, he is very talented at this type of work.

Then we moved on to the longitudinal. Lots of obstacles on this side of the car

Matt used these sticks to keeps the carpet from sticking where it was not massaged into place. This was a learning experience for me

Finally after some cutting, pulling and messaging it was formed perfectly

Fantastic! looks beautiful Glenn.
Isn't this perfect ?
We finally can park next to each other with our Light Ivory cars and for the first time ever our target event is cancelled.
What a bummer.
Wash your hands.

I was doing a little research on the emergency brake system and as it turns out the 1970 914/6s that I looked at do not have a spring. This must have been a later modification.

this is a 1972 with the spring hole and the plate for cover

I was wondering why you were going with a spring for a six but it's not my car. No metal cover either on the early cars.

one of my sixes has been modified (spring added), so the spring must give a more positive pull (release) of the e-brake.

I'm sure you are right. It's worth dripping or spraying dry lube in each of the cables before installation. Makes everything work smoother and easier.
