Well, I remember why I don;t have the part number/price in some old 
spreadsheet - I got my "new" part from a parts car that had had it 
replaced.  I don't recall having to swap the cylinder to do it, though, 
are you sure about that part?  This was on an '89 90Q.

One of these days I need to do the passenger side, so I guess I'll 
"know" then!
