if its not one thing its another - top problem now

[ferrytrip1]

Hi, as I was buying the 19mm socket I saw a vernier caliper set for $8 so I bought them, when I measured the distances they were not the same. I set the passenger side to the same as the driver with my drill and tried the roof - works lovely.

Now I have the clamshell pushrods mixedup so not sure which side goes to where.

They are marked "L" & "R". Is this as I look to the rear from the front. So the one marked "L" is on my left?

Thanks

I looked on mine, and don't see the marking on the push rod, where is it? I would assume it's as you look from the rear to the front; as in "right hand drive", but if you post a pic, or describe where the marking is, I can check quickly on mine for you.

Does this picture help?

Hi, I think you are right - on the label the markings are 986.561.580.00.R. I found another pic that backs up what you said and I think this is the RHS looking from the back of the car to the front.

After my initial happiness it all started to go back to the initial problem. I took it all apart and the xmsn were out of sync again - suspect now that the RHS xmsn has a problem.

So I took it apart and the plastic drive has sheared.

Ar these parts available as separate items - anybody have one in a drawer anywhere?

Thanks
