[TR] FW: TR3 rear fender stay

[Scott Suhring]

Yes, that is correct Randall. I was wrong in my part reference as to where
it mounts basically since I too am clueless has to how this part goes (and I
do have the part). I think I will see if one of our club members can help
out on its use as I am not following your description.  This is one of those
that a picture will tell the story. Thanks.

Are you guys possibly talking about P/N 602167, "Clamp, rear wing fixing" ??

This is a short strip of metal, about 1/2" wide and 3-1/2" long with a
captive nut at one end, and a sharp right angle at the other end.  The
angled part is no more than 1/4".  It doesn't really connect to anything;
the captive nut gets the rearmost truss-headed screw from the trunk lid
opening, while the angle presses against the lip of the rear fender at the
very back.  It basically clamps the last little bit of the fender to the
rear apron.
