Title: Model changes
Post by: dangerdre on 28 October 2019, 07:16:17 pm
Does anyone know if there were slight model changes between the years 1998 and 2001? I'm after getting a used replacement cowl stay and the mounting for holding the clocks is at a much steeper angle than the original - so much so that the clocks foul the ignition switch and can't be fitted. It's a used part so could have obviously been bent but it doesn't appear to be the case.

Same Stay on all the boxeyes, only changed for the Foxeyes.

Mounting point on frame is the same. Post a picture of what you have and I can tell you.

The one I'm after getting is exactly the same as my original except for like I described - the mounting bracket for the clocks is at a much steeper angle so the clocks end up fouling the front of the ignition switch.
