    Front Strut Mount Question

    Hi All.

    I'm about to reassemble my front suspension (69E) and found the following difference in the strut mounts that were installed. The one on the left has a thicker base and the hole is offset roughly 1/3 along the total length. I was given another one of these by a local Porsche expert who said it is correct for my car.

    The one on the right has a thinner base and the hole is rouhgly in the centre. I am curious to know what car this came from, Porsche or otherwise.

    The interesting thing is that the left one has very little fore/aft adjustment, just side to side. In contrast, the right one has a lot of available adjustment in both directions. Basically it seems like a better fit to give more adjustment.

    Could someone be kind enough to confirm which one is right for the car and what the donor car might have been for the other one?

    Thanks!
    Darren
