Top Dash Light

Hey Randall

I replaced the gears in the top transmission along with the cables the other weekend and noticed when trying to align the top that if not aligned correctly when closed the top light would stay on. On the B version of the transmission (do not know about A version) on drivers side there is a micro switch within transmission that will stop the top movement when reached at either end, my issue was the drivers side did not 100% sit before the passenger side did and so the micro switch did not fully close and light stayed on.

looking at the clam shell it looked flush when closed, but it was off by a 1/4" or so from actual measurement of the "V bar" from bottom to top.
