[DeTomaso] 71's are a crapshoot to match parts...agree ordisagree

[Tomas Gunnarsson]

Rob,

I checked my notebook and the L-tube on my dash-1 is also M24x1.5. It also
has two bottom plugs. One magnetic M24x1.5 and one without a magnet that's
M26x1.5.

Tomas

I just checked my VW/audi plug, and it is indeed M24.
