I looked in fast lane and there is only one option for 79 240D. most likely it is the one for the early model with the iron box.

All parts Express shows two MC, one for the early , and one for the later aluminium box. depends on your Vin.

check the length of the rod you now use, and use that one or the same length new one.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
