Hello Sir,

I think you can still get them from Skandix!

How's about this then...

You'll still need a pair of them if you buy the top mounts.
Have a look at 'the bay'.

for why?

If i recall correctly, eccentric top mounts use a pillowball mount?
and that the Volvo struts are a large diameter, so possibly a case of replacing the insert and mount together?

I have indeed trawled the bay to no avail so far.

thanks
