who wants Bilstein HDs

[Ingo Rautenberg]

OK, that may explain the communication gap (what Peter mentioned below).

"The 1991 200 has a forged upper mount, hence the price difference.

-Peter"


I'm talking about the strut bearings PN 441 412 249 A, not the upper strut
mounts 441 412 377 D, which I have NEVER had to replace (either on the v8q
or the 200q20v).  Why would you need to replace the upper strut mounts,
anyway?
