By the way, received today all rod links, and the middle long bar came with the right ball fix, I mean, It does not move. Should it be like this?

Today, finally, I worked out how the high/low beam switching worked on my Fiat Dino 2400 (note, the high-beam relay doesn't work in the usual way).

Then, fitted new relays, driven via new fuseholders from the rear of the alternator and finally have nice bright headlamps. Definitely worth the effort.

I purchased a new coupe trunk gasket from Mr. Fiat in Atlanta to replace one that had gotten chewed up around the latch. The replacement came quickly and seems to be better quality with a steel rib in the flange that attaches to the trunk flange seam. Put it in using small amounts of the 3M yellow weatherstrip adhesive and then closed the boot lid for 24 hours to insure the seal was glued on. Haven't washed the trunk yet to test for waterproofing but the new gasket seems to fit well around the corners---don't expect any problems.
