ooohhh!
very nice. and by now all the original ones are split like mine. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) i currently have the two ends of it sleeved into a length of near identical crinkle german heater duct hose. also nice to see how they were using bits from the 412 parts bin.

QUOTE(914Sixer @ Sep 18 2026, 12:51 PM)  Short blower hose in engine compartment. VW type 411/412 part number. Question, was that duct used from 73 to 76.? In the back of my mind when I did the Restoration of my 1972 914 over 30 years ago that the ducts were cardboard or paper on the early cars.? |

Yes 73-76 hose. Early was black foil lined cardboard, I am guessing the penny pinchers saved some some money using up Type 4 parts since the VW Rabbit was coming.

if we are talking about the short hose from the heater blower to the inlet to the passenger compartment, then mine (which is original) looks just like the one in the picture. black ribbed plastic. mine is still in tack, thank you (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |
