Default Unfortunately, they sent the wrong side tank as a replacement

When I went to put the tank into the garage from where the FedEx delivery person put the tank, I noticed it has a "A" for the last digit. Note the sticker on the picture of the tank with
the extra hole behind the mounting bracket.

Normally, this might mean the drivers or left side... but in Jaguar Spectra land it means the right side, passenger side.

My drivers side is the one with the extra hole!

I asked for another replacement and a pick up of the wrong tank.

Damn Roger, that's a nail biter. Hope they ship the correct one soon. It ain't over 'til it's over...
