The spot welds numbering nine in total, are at the vertical point adjacent to the outboard fixing.

I cannot wait to see the replacements, which I'm assured are not from the same Indian supplier

Hi Dave & Brian.
I could be completely wrong and most likely am, but that was what I was looking at, they seem to be welded in a different position, of cause the view of the photo could be playing a trick on the eyes, I have not had an arm in front of me, Indian or Chinese, but since Brian pointed out quite a long time ago about the Indian arms I have not added any to my stock pile of parts.

I too am waiting on these new ones to come to the front, in the mean time I have put out a call for some decent original ones that I can have replenished, hopefully the call will bare fruit.
