Holes
Posted: Wed Jul 21, 1999 5:03 pm
I have just been replacing the heater hoses in my 1967 S3 S/E DHC which
reminded me that there are two holes in the glove box which look like they
should have something fitted but haven't. The first is in the back of the
glove box and is a circle 1 3/8" in diameter The second is in the right
hand side at the back which is a 9/16" x 3/8" rectangle with further small
holes, one above the rectangle and one below, which would probably be for
securing screws.
All these look like they were made at the time of manufacture and none of
them appear to have had anything in them at any time.
Having looked in the workshop manual and the parts list, I find that the
small rectangular hole is for the burglar alarm. Does anyone have one of
these original fitments?
I have looked in the manual and in the parts book but cannot find anything
which might belong in the circular hole (except a blanking grommet).
Does anyone have any info on what this hole is for?
