   honestly mate doesnt make a difference mate, just make sure its for a saxo, splines all line up etc and make sure it has a piece of metal to cancel the indicator on the end
   
   think the haynes does explain but if you do a search it will come up with something im sue of it, i typed out a kind of guide in a few posts,ust not going to type it out over and over again
