I'm in the process of trying to clean up / resto the headlights and headlight carriers on my '75 project car. Took one apart, treated the rust, and hit it with the gray paint. I order the rebuild kit from 914 Rubber. In looking at the driver's and passenger's side assemblies there's a difference I can't figure out, specifically with how the actuator arm is retained on the pin.
On the LEFT in the pic below, I've pointed to the assembly pin that has a hole in it (dark pic, sorry). A washer slides on the pin and a cotter pin goes through that hole to hold the washer and arm in place. The assembly on the RIGHT has no hole in the pin for a cotter to go through. So how is it held on? I took these apart so long ago I can't remember what was on there or why these were different. Also, is it supposed to be one spring holding the carrier on the assembly or two?
