Renault 4 GTL steering rack gaiter identification

[lozzer44]

Hi to everyone new R4 owner and needing some help regarding steering rack gaiter identification, i have just bought a new set on ebay (moprod SRG839) which says on the box it is suitable for GTL 1980 onwards but these seem very different to the ones on my 1986,they dont have the protrusion on the outer end for the cable tie to go round and the hole is quite a lot larger in diameter than the steering arm,
Hope this makes sense, just wondering if anybody else has come across this

Those are for early cars pre 78 with different rack
Was there a picture of them out of the box before you bought them as lots of ebay seller simply read the label on box or cross reference against an out of date catalogue

Hi thanks Paul, i had a feeling that may have been the case, thanks for your answer, there was a pic but stupidly i took notice of the description which said it was suitable for a 1980 onwards GTL,
Now our dog has eaten one of them i cant return them....lol

Hello Lozzer44,
Just wondering by any chance do you still have the steering gaiter in your picture, I only need 1, if not please can you let me know where you bought it from. Thanx.
