Upper Ball Joint pictures (rubber dust cover removed)

S2's original upper ball joint's rubber dust cover was torn.
I show you some pictures, along with a new Lotus upper ball joint. It seems that a new type of rubber dust cover is used.
Note: Lotus Esprit has a similar upper ball joint, very similar to M100's. They are not compatible.

Thanks for the pictures.

When did Lotus start selling these. If I remember correctly they were NLA when I needed them and I had to go through some odd place in England. England to USA, quite a distance for ball joints.
