Dan,
You and I could almost do a group buy on these between the two of us. I need a set right now and another within the next six months. E-mail me and let's see what we can get going.

I might be in for a set of those, also. Last time we had mine in the air, the passenger side mount was looking tired.
Need five or more sets for the price break, as I understand it. _________________ '80 924 n/a SOLD |

You can just buy direct and get just 1 if you need to. Same price as OEM.
They are discounted already and lower than the dealer prices.
Group buys would save about an additional $30.00 on the set and the shipping will be combined.
I needed mine right away so could not wait. _________________ 1978 924 95 mile daily driver.

Dan,
I agree with Vaughn, but I am going down to Springfield this morning and will check with Jim on what his looked like. If you need two, we have the group buy. Anyone else want to get in. I have not heard back from John in the UK to confirm the price, however, the exhchange rate yesterday afternoon was 1.975 dollars per pound.

Clarification. I need one set for my 931 wide body. For some reason I had it in my head that the mounts were different than the NA...my mistake. With Rasta, we should have enough for the group buy... _________________ erstwhile owner of just about every 924 variant ever made |

"We would consider 5 sets and above for a group buy at £100/pair."
I'm in for a set but probably only NEED one, if someone else would like to split a set with me.
They're identical, right? And will fit either side for either 924 or 931? _________________ '80 924 n/a SOLD |

Not identical but could be made to fit.

Right. By identical, I meant the mountings are the same. The points where they make contact w/the motor and frame.
The one I want to replace is the one on the passenger side; the one w/the spring.
Thanks Ozzie. _________________ '80 924 n/a SOLD |

The width of the spacing between the bolts is different but by elongating the hole they should fit either side.
I forget which is smaller but its only about 6mm diffierence. _________________ Porsche 924 1984 (UK import) NA
