I suffer that fateful question often. There are many examples of illogical differences in LH/RH drive vehicles, partculary in and around the engine bay area,
1) sometimes there are distict differences between LR/RH parts
2) sometimes the parts are same but located in the opposite half of the car
3) other times the parts are the same and located in the same half of the car
I would hate RHFFGB to spend all his precious gold, oil, sand, goats, camels or whatever currency he uses out there only find it was useless when delivered. Not that it will be in this particular case. Life is what you make it.

Some of the parts are on the opposite half of the car!!!! Hell!!! You mean I could have the engine installed somewhere else! Does it run in the opposite direction cos its a left-hooker then? Maybe all the bolts are LH thread too?! An' maybe that's why the soukh seller sold me a left handed spanner set?
Support for my feeble ol' mind is always welcome, your honour Scollis. If I could work out how to attach these wee little Emoticon thingummies, I'd give you a bow.

This isn't daft question No 2.
This is a statement ......
"The Mantec Plate will fit a D3 with an 'A' Frame"!!
I'm sure that if the statement is wrong, someone will mention it.

Did with mine, mind you my A frame is a winch version!!! Note my plate was prior to JMC's private enterprise intitiative thingy!!! Never thought of myself as a trend setter.
I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

JMC
Tell Mantec you are a main distributor for Mantec Plates and find out if you've sold more than LR.
As a main dristributor if they will not give you priority and get them done quick......we will accept early December no problem with more discount though....say 25 plates...ready within the first week of December.....price say..............£100 each....
Worth a try.
If that dont work JMC...talk them into the benefits they would enjoy with some lovely Entels.........Then tell them delivery 2 weeks after the plates......
