Re: Help identify this part please

Thanks guys, I'd a feeling it was flipable either way but had no way of knowing. That parts book should be handy, I had no idea about that. And yes...I can't type for toffee.

Is this likely to be the part responsible for for the awful cracking sound?

I saw a door stay listed on ebay, the seller didn't know which side it was for so I took a 50/50 punt on it given the price. Can anyone tell by looking or from the part n...

Moonroof problem.

I'm hoping the 480 gurus can help me on this one. My moonroof will open but not close. The motor is running with the switch pressed in either direction but it doesn't lower.
