Yup think i have made a pigs ear of this by ignoring that arm gear teeth situtation, looking at ones on sale first 2 images, arm needs to be in a different position...plus i compare the cable length showing highlighted in circle on mine, to ones on sale and i have too much on show, telling my arm is in wrong place ....thing is when i do undo all my work
then difficult to tell where the right place is for that arm with teeth only via photos....so may end up having to buy a new one....or basically do i position the arm fully up in my case and accompanying cable to the final position whereby i have on show as little as possible of the cable so to speak, and i'm good? very frustrating had my older carriers somewhere but cannot find em, and ok not the end of the world to buy a new one but sort of defeats having to fix this one
bahhhh 5:38 shows the open close situation i am way out with what I did, now do i sit here now all night and give it another go?
