    This is my 28 Essex in the louvres open position, I think the 29 is the same mechanism.

    Thanks for the pics of the 28 louvers' operator pieces' this make it a lot easier' tried making the 30-31 mechanism' it could work but needs mods, appreciate the 30-31 pics also, it gave me a starting point. Just need some measurements, width, depth, and length for bracket and measurements of the operating cam, this would be must appreciated.I could take an educated guess from the pics, will try this first, if you could post the mearurement, or email them, please to ptraxler@cogeco.ca

    thanks again Peter

    If you can give me a few days I can go to the 'spare dept' & do an exact measurement & maybe even find the actual unit as a spare (no promises on that).It's in a tricky place to measure whilst it's on the car.

    Thanks Dave, would be much appreciated, trying to make one out of cardboard as a pattern, but a few measurements would be a help, of the bracket and lever, and if you have a spare that great!

    Just wondering if you have had a chance to measure the bracket and lever for me, made the cardboard template and lever, I would like to know if I am in the ballpark with my templates, thanks for your assistance!
