Thanks doing my car soon, I always try and 'stuff' a bit more rubber into the groove, before I cut to length. Rubber can shrink due to heat, environment, (notice how window scrapper rubber always seem to be short a year after you install). so see if you can pack the rubber in, won't be noticeable, then you'll not have a gap. My two cents. BW
I'll be replacing my engine seals soon on my 914-6 conversion car. Car has been unused for quite a few years, and the resurrection process has become quite involved. I just ordered the "snorkel tube" that feeds the main harness from the tunnel up thru the engine compartment floor. It looks to be quite a project, and I wonder if you have ever attempted this job? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Stephen Webster which pieces? The fuzzies sit on a metal bracket which is attached by 3 screws. The rear seal slides into a channel and is secured by a screw. The forward one is part of the triangle window frame

Yes, replacing the snorkel is a deal. Just go slowly and use lots of lube ;)

Thanks!
you're welcome!
Is this doable with the engine in?
I suppose so, but it probably won't be easy.
