My May '16 DB tie rod has met with some interesting times--it has bends in it that I'm certain were not there originally. I tried 3 times to attach a picture of it here, but the system stops communicating with me when I try, so you're stuck with a written description. There are two bends near each end that appear to be factory, and offset the center of the tie rod. There are two bends in the center of this section that appear to be accidental. Is the tie rod offset for these cars? it moves the center of the rod down about an inch, and forward about a half-inch--I'm guessing here! This tie rod has only one end adjustment and it's on the Passenger side. Headlight buckets for this time period--I have two buckets with no provision for a headlamp bulb adjustment (focus). These buckets also have a large round wire shaped to form the "hook" that holds the reflector and the lens rim on, unlike the other two which have the focusing screw and flat metal "hooks" that are spot welded to the bucket. Of course both use a flat spring at the hooks, although the wire ones use a slightly different spring shape, but the stamped metal hook springs will fit. Which ones are right for my car?
