Original diapram was very hard and where the washer sits on the top it was flat , to flat. I cleaned out the housing it sits in refitted all the new parts and the new housing cap, ive kept the old housing cap as i didnt snap any tabs.
I found it easier to unclip the tab on the left which is closest to the rocker cover itself . 5 min job with a picking tool. New parts are black.

Thanks jim me and the wife went to our local pie mash place early on , car feels smoother the wife noticed it straight away. I got the lower engine mount which i suspect might have play in so i did purchase one it arrived today was less than 15£ so will change it over when i get time , i get shudder on pulling away plus vibration from that area , cheap fix worth doing. Parts are pretty cheap on these cars , which i like a lot. Save my wallet from to much stress lol
