Hi guys maybe getting some adjustable top mounts from a friend only problem they where designed for a 205.

So question could they fit a 306 with strut/turret work?

Thanks sam

Are they the compbrake ones? If so I used to use them on my car.

I think you will find you would need to have the half moon modification welded onto your strut tops. Just changes the shape of the top mount hole so you can drill the required mounting hole to get it properly fixed.

Cheers guys there where made by a german company maybe a group buy on 205gti or something.

I'll try get a picture of them they seems to have more mounting holes that the compbrake, baker ones.

So does the moon plate shift the strut across so it clears?

No it just makes the top mount hole go from oval - round to allow you to bolt the top mount in
Iirc midlife did a thread that you might want to look at

    Ok is it in his project thread? Can't find it.

    So the actaully mounting and position of the struts are fine?

    Yes the struts still mount in the right place. You still use two of the original holes I believe. So location is the same.
