[s-cars] 034 street density mounts on the S6

[Steve Marinello]

Stock AAN are still available...or at least stock OEM units are available.
 I was going to ask about the S6+ mounts, but forgot.  Thought they had
become unavailable here.  Where did you source yours?   Have you installed
them, and if so, what do you think?
