ECP also say the same for the lower engine mount, Stating it now as a letter M on it instead of the letter T. saying one mould etc ? what happened did they throw away all the diesel mount moulds

Just to bring this into focus the mounts i have highlighted above will not fit the diesel as they are 15mm to high once in the holding cage on the front arm.
I found this out recently when i went to fit one to my tourer, unless someone knows different.

The height difference would throw the engine higher on that side by 15mm in my opinion as anyone fitted one of these to a diesel without any problem ?
