    Default Which side is up???

    Do any of you fellow ZR4 owners know the answer to this burning question:

    What side of the rear shifter head is considered "UP"? The front heads are clearly marked "This Side Up", yet the rear head is not. Does it matter???

    Technically, the rear shifter is "up" when, looking at the shifter, the bubble is more towards the right side of the shifter. Yet due to the internal design of the rear shifter and unlike the front shifters, mounting it correct side up or upside down doesn't matter at all.

    So, technically speaking, the rear head (as I have it on my vehicle) would be considered in the correct or UP position?

    I dunno. Where is a pic? Like I said, for the rear head it doesn't matter anyway.

    Victor has the rear head in its correct side up position even though for the rear head it really doesn't matter at all. I don't like how the rear head is obscuring part of the bottom of the plate. Victor could either flip the head or he could simply unscrew and transpose the head's mounting brackets so that the rear head will be a bit lower and won't obscure part of the license plate.
