Hi

Glad to hear that solved the problem, I bought a new one through the local auto parts place a few years ago, when I open the box in the store to see if it looked right it didn't have the side plate insulators. Lesson was to take a careful look at all boxes to see if they look like they have been opened.

Parts place ordered another and it came through with the insulators. One of the benefits of dealing with one primary parts place is that when something is not correct I've got an better than even chance of having it made right.

Cheers Phil
