but are you using pin type or hole type end on actuator?

Pin type i would have thought. You would be better doing something like that than getting a hole type and using a paperclip as mentioned in your wanted thread, a small nut and bolt would be better if using a hole type.
But yeah, improvise!

Sounds like a couple people are using R clips yeah, I used a bit of thin wire, wrapped it round the pin in the litlle groove then gave it a good twist. Its a bit of a fuck about but once you get something decent in there it should stay!
