MG MGF Technical - The crap window stopper.

It happened AGAIN last night. My right window stop creaked and broke and then,... became a bye-bye part.
!#$%^&*!. As I knew, the stopper is just a simple part. Why MG had no qualified engineers to design a more reliable stopper? It is crap!!!
I had checked the spare info in Dieter's website and knew that the window stopper got the third edition.

Anybody could tell me when to buy the 3rd window stopper? The Taiwan mgf service station only stocked the 2nd edition stopper. I need to buy them overseas.

Leave out the purchase, Don.
I'll forward by eMail the measures of:
CUQ100140 stop
CVT100090 washer
SS105161 bolt

Only the 'looking like a threaded cylinder' diameter is required for a real engineer.

Dieter,
You're wonderful, It seems that the problem could be solved permanently. I should be ready to prepare the proper materials for the works.
Nice to image the problem-free side windows.
Cheers,

Don, I know I#m the best ... in trying ... ROFL

Measures in mm (Sorry Ted) :)) from engineer to engineer.
See them according to the above hosted picture, from left hand side to right as
d = diameter
h or t = hight or depth
sq = spuare

Stopper
d 14 / h 10, thread M5 (metal insert)
sq 21.5 / h 3
d 6.8 / h 4 (later in glass hole, so the 4mm meet the glass depth)

Washer
d 22 / h 5 / drill 5
outside cambered (not required)
right side lowered d 10 / t 3 (for insert hexagon screw head)

insert hexagon head cylindric screw
M 5 x 16 (measure without head)

Don, can't you make an pro-engineer design and 3d-view as animated gif on your webside of this sh*t part ? ... LOL, just kidding)

Have fun
Dieter
