Note to everybody - If you have a '79 300 SD, the hook inside the IP DOES NOT GO IN THE HOLE. It goes forward of it so that it can pull it back. If you put this little doohickey in the hole you will have a nice little runaway.

Add a 1979 240D to the list of vehicles where the hook does not go in the hole but FORWARD of it.
