My '65 special has a black nylon washer.

Hmmh, having looked again at this, in my case, given that my panels are Sx200, it looks like I should not have the roller type panel handle. I did consider this but thought they were the same dimensions and, in my experience, the older roller type work a bit better.

I am sure I can be creative to get round it though.

I have a pair of reproduction SX 200 panels that I bought about 6 or 7 years ago from TSR,these have no tubes and fit better than the original Li panels that they replaced.

Thanks mate hey showing out of stock though
. Sent my recent ones back. Just a bit dubious buying these without seeing them first. Can't be too many places making the pressed ones.

I drove past where they used to be in Hitchin and looks like there's a different garage company there.... :?
