were firewall pads installed in all the 914. or were there some that they were not installed in

the early cars didn't have 'em.

Up to 73?

All the 73's I have seen came with the sound pad. Maybe they added them in 72? I don't know. Anybody?

Geoff

I've seen one 72 with a pad. I don't know if it got added in or if it came with the car...

They're getting pretty old now and tend to fall apart...

My 72 does not have one, but it's a repaint so hard to say.

i don't think my 70 even ever had the metal clips to hold them in ...

it's a sports car, you WANT to hear the enigne

not interested just curious

hmmm, om my car that sticker is on top of the fan housing ON the engine ...

On my 74 that sticker is on the inner fender in the engine bay behind the relay board

My '71 has no backpad and has that sticker in the same spot on the firewall.

That looks to be a *very* early '72!

My sticker is on the rear quarter panel behind the relay board. Its a 73 and has a sound pad
