So, you know that guy Murphy who's got this "Law" thingy? Yeah, well, he shows up just when I put the car up for sale last month. Translation: power top quit working on me. Literally, days before sale!
Everything sounded normal but just decided to quit. Fast forward to last week - had to replace the LEFT Hinge (actuator) as it too failed (leaked).
Not for nothing but this is further proof that cars are very temperamental when it comes to changing owners - they know. Somehow, they just know.
Lesson to all: if you have one of these fail on you, change them both! As Shipkiller's sig alludes to, should've taken time (and spent money first round) to change them both when I had the chance!

^ PM me know if you want the failed one - I saved it for you.
