Doh! So it does - that's the one place I didn't look!



White arrows show the rod. Green arrow - short bend in its hole. Red arrow - loop end secured by screw.

All the best, Nicholas/Zircon
I'll give Terry a ring but my guess now is it's just a separator/spacer device to stop the rollbar rubbing against the gear change cables.

Still, at least I haven't thrown it away by accident.


NB. I think the descriptions of 7 and 8 on GRID999752 are both wrong.


Edit:

Here's the thing off the car. A bit longer than I said earlier - it's just under 9 inches. The chunky screw is a Torx T50 btw.



At least my sketch is more accurate than MGR's
