Following your link that company has posted so much detailed info it must be true.--------( Maybe. Lol )


Where on earth did you find it Brian ??

I found it a couple of days ago and let Brian know about it this evening, we were laughing so much earlier it hurt :laughing2::laughing2::laughing2::laughing2:

The information on parts for our cars and the Chinese cars have been available for years, if you look hard enough ;)

I'm up for this. Sold my spares to help a local member last year and not found suitable replacements yet. If it helps I might be able to make up some of the order and maybe hold some to be sold on to members in need as per croft's door finishers ... not for profit that is.

Looked at the trading company website, :eek:

I done a wide China wholesale search for parts for our cars some time ago, gave up looking, the replies would just come back with an unavailability, seems many listings lay dormant. :shrug:

I hope this is not the case for these, I may have even tried them already though.

If you go direct to their own websites, you can usually find more info.

So therefore all if not most of the parts we are finding or being offered for our cars may well be coming from this source ? I think I will stick to the Unipart items I tend to find now and again, wouldn't it have been great if they made the arms.

Add at least 50% for import duty, and air freight is none too cheap either unless you can wait 6-8 weeks for surface vessel

I see that they fit the "Stufenhech" model too! :D

I thought the interpretation of stufenhech was a heck of a stiff neck.

I have great admiration for the ingenuity and opportunistic nature of our Chinese cousins. They are somewhat behind our industrial revolution of c.19th Century but have obviously studied it at length.

Maybe there is a possibility of a growth industry in translation/interpretation techniques but our proficiency in their language does need massive improvement. They impress with their enthusiasm.
