Are you buying cheap ones, or proper Lemforders? And are you fitting them with the arrows pointing the right way?

The last one I bought was from GSF and it was the more expensive one from there. Arrow pointing towards the back of the car?

Because one lot point at the gearbox output flange, and the other three point at the prop flange.
