    I have changed one of these and for the life of me I don't remember that bar in the picture. I will check the Bentley and post what I find. It was very straight forward, the only hard part was getting the cable back on.

    I think it goes into the white thing at the bottom of figure 13 in your link. You have to straighten out the bar in your first pic
    to get them to reach each other as you maneuver the actuator
    into place.
    There are two ways it can fit (90 degrees apart). One way works and
    the other way doesn't in respect to mating with the lock cylinder.

    Figured it out. It goes in this slot on the actuator.
