Default Handbrake Compensator Differences.

I don't know if anyone has ever noticed this but I did today for the first time, I've done one for the ZT and I have quite a few in my odds and sods, I noticed a difference and so I lined up these three to show what I mean. The length of the rod is not uniform on any of them, the longest one will of course eat into the adjustment ability of the cable. I've picked a really short one for my car and I'm posting this as a heads up to avoid losing adjustment on the cables. I wonder who supplied them and why they were accepted when they're all so different, it explains a lot of handbrake issues as so many of these things are basically rubbish.
