As you know I am looking for a passenger 914-4 Bilstein strut. Mark E suggested I call DC Automotive. So I did. Well the seller on the other end of the line told me he had been doing it for 25 years and that he had never heard of such a thing. I assured him that I had two drivers sides and that they were real and they had a 3" brake caliper pattern. Seller was again polite but indicated I was nuts. I said thank you and went on.

I found it amusing. I hope that I am able to learn something new everyday. Still working on being a know it all after all these years. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)
