Just wanted to let you guys know that Mance is making a last run of his mount savers. You may want to get in on it. He has been ill, and this may be your last chance.

They can have my car when they pry my cold dead fingers from the steering wheel. -
Cheers for the heads up. -
Awesome, I mailed a long time ago about this, he does say he's not able to look back at previous requests...
I should be in the US June/July so I'm to get a few sets if others in EU are interested.AUDI - saving Dad's from minivans since 1994

I have emailed him today for some savers and Bilstein alloy nuts for the promounts he made me. Ross if you are able to bring some home that would be brilliantComment

No problem Vas, I'm happy to help out. Already tempted to stop by Hanks workshop and get one his RS2 turbo's to see how it fares - I'll end up with a suitcase of Audi parts
I have a set of Meyle HD mounts for the front, wonder if these will fit, could be a good combination for street. If not I'll have to get some stock ones. These mount savers are just for the fronts right?AUDI - saving Dad's from minivans since 1994Comment

MS2's OK for front OR rear....I have them on the rear ( Got Promounts front ) .
BTW they won't fit the Meyle HDs , use only with Boge/Sachs OEMs.
I'm surprised no-one has knocked up a batch of these over here, its a urethane ring and an alloy ring, can;t be that difficult, and saves your mounts from collapse , had mine on a year ( on rear, so not much twisting ) and all sound, likewise the PMounts, proper good.Comment

Yes. I already managed to get a promoynt set for me a while back but it seems that I may not be able to have the lifetime warranty since Mance is not to be making them anymore so that's why I wanted some bits to have as as sparesNo problem Vas, I'm happy to help out.

Ross - I also sent an enquiry a while back but it must have been lost in the black hole.
I can't remember the price from back then as it was when I was looking to do a suspension refresh (which will happen at some point) but if you can remind me then I may well be interested in taking you up on your kind offer of bringing some back....cheers

Are you talking about these parts that quattrostyle is selling?
Can somebody post a picture as I don't know what parts are these...Comment

Thanks. If Mance isn't able to offer these after this buy, perhaps Bambridge could look into it if there's demand!
I've had a reply. Shipping to the US is much preferred so I'm willing to get a number of pairs and distribute. Just post up if you want some, I'll formalise something if its more than a few people as I'll start needing money up front or you pay Mance directly. We can work that out.
Currently 27 pairs available, they are selling out pretty quick so get the requests in now!AUDI - saving Dad's from minivans since 1994Comment

Perfect timing, i've just bought a set of genuine Boge mounts from Audi to rebuild my pro mounts
I've sent him an e-mail for two sets, if anybody in Ireland wants to share the postage costs just let me know.
@Ross these wont fit the HD mounts, and to be honest there rubbish so dont waste your time fitting them.91CQ20v - Gone to a new home

One of my Meyle HD mounts has failed after ~5k miles, so OEM with savers is the next thing to try.Comment

As of 9 am EDT USA time Mance had less than 20 pair remaining...suggest that if you are interested you move quickly.Peter S

the ones he is selling are the Red 'sport ' ones....thats what I have on my rear susp. stiffer than the black ones=better .
Make sure you use NEW mounts, don't stick them in your old ones ...the top of the Meyle HDs is too wide for them to fit, and in any case HDs are as much good as plasticine IHMO ...
Postage shouldn't be much, they are featherlight and fit in an envelope but check he is willing to post outside USA , his health recently meant he couldnt get out to the USP o/seas office ...sorry to hear too that the P/Mounts are NLA now
Best wishes Mance if you're reading thisComment
