I am finishing up the interior on my 914 and ready to seal rest of carpet and put seats in and found this - does it stay open like that ? I found a little plastic gasket covering the drivers side - it needs to be replaced and the passenger side was not covered

Help?

There is a black tar like covering that goes therre. Either AA or 914rubber should be able to help you. It dies not stay open.

Any idea what it’s called?

It’s number 10 in the diagram, used to manage noise.

It may not have been used in the early cars though, this 70 doesn’t seem to show evidence of the tar found elsewhere.

Where they stuck like the tar mats? I don’t remember them when I stripped the interior of my six, but that could be the fumes playing with my memory.

Thanks all

Some of my early cars had them, some didn't.

I used oval pieces of adhesive sound deadening material.

It wasn't plastic, it's just sound deadening that's hardened over the years. Replace with like.

Yes, same as the tar mats, just cut to fit the small oval shape.

Evercoat Q Pads are a dead match for the material. I just cut ovals out of some I had left over from another project but I just checked current pricing and holy crap that stuff has gotten pricey! yikes.gif

If you add a stiffening kit to the longs, the holes are covered anyway.

agree.gif Some have adhesive backing and some don’t. Two per side. Just replaced mine several weeks ago when replacing door sill carpets. Used carpet spray adhesive.
