Hi David,
thanks a lot. Does the thin one has the additional holes (additional to
the four 8mm holes in the corner)? If I recall right, at least I think I
used this one between cover and pump.
And the one with only the holes for the stats between case and pump ...
Might be that i am wrong ...
Anyway thanks a lot and take it easy.
Cheers
Thomas
