    You always seem to piss on my NOS inventory. First my Webasto mufflers, now this. What's next? Electric window motors?

    I've been squirreling dampers away for a while. Always thought "no one is crazy enough to repop these".

    As always, very nice work Franz.

    let me know what NOS stock you have and i adjust my projects acordingly(whatever acordingly means ).

    actually it was a short decision to repop those--met a friend of mine-- he is working as head of development for a european shock absorber company...the idea was born two weeks ago....
