>Len ........ Look for a Cole Hersee or Wagner mfg. cataloge at your parts
supplier
check Cole Hersee # 8626 Wagner FC5106 I have used these on + 4
and 4/4
for $10.00 us ...... good luck!
Just don't tell the parts guy or gal what is it for, just confuses the hell
out of them if they dont have a car name to
hang on it
