Well... as long as we are abusing Speednjay's thread I'll add this ...
Can we identify the brand of this item I just received? Supposedly from a closed MB shop. and should equal a 126 410 04 15. Says Germany, but looks like a grinder removed the brand symbol (see photos)
The reverse is un marked. ( see photos) Which side should go forward?
About the brand - the seller originally claimed FEBI ( so I bought it) but when I called him on that after having it in hand he admits he can't back that and doesn't know.
The other one I purchased elsewhere is supposed to be genuine MB. tracking says it is coming yesterday and is currently about 300 miles away in a different state. If history can be my guide it will take a while and a few more pit stops to get here ( 2nd day USPS PM from Nov 1

) It is not easy being me
That PAT number leads to this :
