Real quick.. Anyone know the size of the C clip on the headlight motor arm that keeps the linkage in place... and not through your condenser

OTTOMH? No. But, I have a bag of them in the shop.

Use 999 166 005 02 - way better than a C Clip and it cannot come off.

Rick (WyattsRide here and on rennlist) came up with a fix for this from the local hardware store, and handed out a bunch of his little clips at Frenzy a couple of years ago. Do a search on rennlist and you'll see what he used. It's like a fifty cent fastener and works perfectly.

IIRC, it was something like this:

Much more secure than a standard "E-Clip".

Ive been utilizing the c clips that retain the roller wheel guides at the base of the timing belt.

Those fit the headlight arm.

In future, would of course use what Roger noted below, since Roger noted it!

Actually the idea came from jcoreman. I did hand a lot out at Hershey and Frenzy. I got them at McMaster-Carr.
