I saw one on the AA site, I think 160 bucks. I hear they have great customer service, not!
You could try the 914club when they get back up. Used 60 to 80 bucks.

There are two types of them. Someone, a good while ago, ran off a bunch of them that were built specifically for the 914. They were obviously inspired by the 911 ones. These have been NLA just about everywhere for a good while now.

The other type is the standard 911 rear reflector. It gets cut down on the sides to fit. These are available all over.

I purchased one of those "914 specific" center reflectors from Automobile Atlanta years ago. I didn't like it, looked kinda cheezy so I returned it. If you must have one, use a "real" 911 reflector that's cut down. I think they look much nicer.

the edges on that one were very cool. a beveled edge all around that was black, very subtle, . we'll see how it looks on a car soon, i'm sure.

Do the majority think these reflectors are nice looking or not....I'm undecided whether to keep mine or put the original script on and weld up the six holes.
Cheers.

thesey914: Personally, I think they give the tail of the 914 a nice clean, more finished look. Especially when nicely installed. Your's is nicely installed. I vote you leave it there.
