Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Thanks Alex good pictures but I can't figure out where the eye fixes, is it on the side frame or the front cross beam Probably feel silly when you tell me

POST 7Original post

There's an independant curved metal plate that the roof wraps round. The rivet fastens into that.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
