WTF................ regulators are different between 74 and 75

Bolt holes on the up right are different!

WHY??? :grind:

on a bug the regulator has to go into the door first

yeah - I am right with that

it seems a 75L bug the upright bit that the window rides up and down mounts differently to the 74L bug

the bracket at the bottom is different

As it turned out it was the rachet that was shagged

New one is not supported at the bottom - what ever, it works
