So the PO of my van installed 2 pairs of Thule Artificial Rain Gutter Mounts (model 542) on the side of my PH top. What I am trying to figure out is why one pair appears to be installed upside down. Can anybody think outside of the box and help me out?
Here is a pic of the normal mount:
Here is a pic of the upside down mount:
Here is a picture from Thule of the mount with a foot pad connected to it.
So can anybody tell me why the PO would have possibly install one of the mounts upside down? Since the bolts are offset, it doesn't appear that I can simply turn the mount right-side up, because it doesn't look like it will fit.
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
