Re: [DML] Clock repaired - thanks DML

["Bernie" <bmanderville@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

My 2nd D has the original door and bonnet struts on it, the bonnet 
struts will need replacement soon, the door struts still work!  The 
louver struts I replaced a couple of weeks ago as they were totally 
shot.

ideas whY?? The only speedometer problem I've ever had was while 
replacing the front springs/shocks I broke the fitting off the 
original lower Speedo cable, otherwise my whole system from the 
gauge to the wheel would be original after 50K miles and 24 years!

Anyone else still looking at original struts??
