With over 20 years of Porsche 914 expertise and a nearly two-decade partnership with 914Rubber, we’re the top retailer of their SKUs, selling more than anyone else.

Kit Components:
-
Wire Pull Handle (Part #901.552.813.20): A reproduction pull handle for the engine deck lid latch, crafted from high-strength steel with a durable coating to resist corrosion. This handle connects to the latch mechanism, allowing easy access to the engine compartment. Compatible with 911, 912, 914, and 968 models, it’s a direct replacement for worn or broken originals, ensuring smooth operation. One required per car.
-
Wire Pull Cable (Part #914.511.091.10): This reproduction cable features a threaded end stud for seamless integration with existing hardware. Made from braided steel with a protective sheath, it resists stretching and fraying, common issues we’ve seen in our shop with aged cables. It connects the pull handle to the latch, ensuring reliable release. One required per application.
-
Deck Lid Hook with Hardware (Part #914.512.155.10, N.012.241.1, 900.025.007.02): A reproduction hook that mounts to the underside of the deck lid, locking into the latch mechanism to keep it securely closed. Includes stainless steel mounting screws and washers for corrosion resistance. Crafted from reinforced steel, it withstands repeated use without bending. One required per car.
Technical Details: Tailored for all Porsche 914 model years (1970-76), this kit restores the deck lid’s latch system to OEM standards. The pull cable and handle are designed for precise tension, requiring approximately 10-12 N of force to release the latch, based on our in-house testing. Installation involves accessing the latch mechanism behind the engine bay carpet; clean contact points with isopropyl alcohol and secure the hook with screws torqued to 5-6 Nm to avoid stripping. For optimal performance, pair with 914Rubber’s Deck Lid Rubber Replacement Kit (Part #914.504.105.10) to ensure a weather-tight seal. Pro tip: Lubricate the cable sheath with silicone-based grease to reduce friction and extend lifespan. One kit per car.
