I am unable to slide the quadrant onto the pin nearest to the firewall. There is a big bracket of some sort in the way. There just isn't enough room to get the quadrant onto the pin.

lol.I will agree that sn95 > fox in this situation.


There is less than probably 1/2" between the top pin and that dumb bracket.

its amazing what a little coffee break can do. I had my coffee and decided to give it one more try before I go to bed, and it pretty much just fell into place (with a little persuasion of course )

sorry for the double post.
