I know no one gives a s***, but anyway, slept on it, had a look this am, lip that seal was behind might come out? Applied heat, pinged out with screwdriver,part not shown on any info i could find, haynes etc..so another seal

and off we go again. PXs are ace!

this will sound like no help but they normal fit in very easy with a bit a grease. When i do them i push them in with fingers and with a soft wood dolly tap round to get it level - i`ve never had an issue with them
mind there are 2 types - early and efl but not sure what the size difference is - think early maybe bigger
best of luck
