[DeTomaso] Steering column problem

[jim gray]

Forum:  I noticed in the factory diagram that the little red plastic thing that cancels the 
turn signals is show with the hump at the top, closest to the steering wheel, while Mikes's 
picture shows it just the opposite.  Does it matter in which position it is installed?  Mine is 
installed like Mike's.

Just curious
