914Rubber Engine Deck Lid and Front Trunk Buffer for Porsche 914 (All Years)
Optimize the alignment and protection of your Porsche 914’s lids with the 914Rubber Engine Deck Lid and Front Trunk Buffer (part number 914.559.253.10), designed for all 914 models from 1970-76. This reproduction rubber bumper limits travel on the engine deck lid and front trunk lid when opened, preventing hinge stress and body contact. Four buffers are required per car—two for the front trunk and two for the engine deck lid—suitable for 1.7L, 1.8L, 2.0L, and 914/6 models.
PMB Performance, with over 20 years of Porsche 914 expertise, has partnered with 914Rubber for nearly two decades, selling more 914Rubber SKUs than any other retailer. Crafted from high-quality, UV-resistant rubber, these buffers withstand engine bay heat up to 180°F and front trunk moisture, unlike factory buffers that degrade and crumble. Their 15mm diameter and molded base ensure a secure fit, with deck lid buffers installed in the hinges (PET diagram 803-05 P14) and trunk buffers in the body holes (PET 802-00 P26, 802-05 P32).
Worn buffers can cause overextension, risking hinge damage or paint chipping on the 914’s 1,980-lb chassis, and may allow water ingress in the front trunk, threatening the fuse box. These 914Rubber buffers install easily, pressing into place, and pair with the 914.512.319.10 deck lid seal and 914.511.901.10 front trunk seal for a complete refresh.
