Default What is the correct strut mount you want to buy?
Impex has two of them listed. One is 'original part' and the other is 'aftermarket.' I was told the green ones were the good ones, but the aftermarket one is shown as green in the pic. Which to buy?

Is there a cheaper place than Impex?<ul><li><a href="http://www.worldimpex.com/parts/aftermarket-strut-mount_5658.html">http://www.worldimpex.com/parts/aftermarket-strut-mount_5658.html</a</li></ul>

Default ignore colour.... you want the BOGE mount. If it doesn't say Boge, pass.
Worst case, go to the stealership and buy them there. I paid ~$25 cdn/each last fall.

Default World Impex doesn't tell you the brand, but its Boge
I believe Mance firmed this up some time ago. And yes, do not worry about color.

Default The OE part is painted green on the bottom conical seat. So are many pretenders...
Can't pick them by color, gotta look at the brand name and part number.
