If anyone has a part number you could probably use Ford Mexico as a NAFTA source of current mondeo dampers, with lower shipping costs to boot, (unless they decided they didn't want/need to use them either.......)
You cheap SOB, you could have gotten one LAST WEEK that you would know is the correct part. Last I heard the DMD was for "European Mondeos". Think Ford is putting high priced extras in cars for the Mexican market? Go ahead and buy one from South of the Border. BTW, about NAFTA, when I shipped my UIM to Canada, the recipient had to pay duties that were higher than the shipping cost of the part. AFAIK, NAFTA doesn't mean that nobody pays duty on any parts crossing the border (but I could be wrong about that, I'm no NAFTA expert and I doubt you are either). Or you could send your hard earned money to some guy nobody knows over in Germany. Nobody has ever been ripped off that way in a Group Buy before. Is your $20 worth all the extra risk?
Have I mentioned that I love my DMD (supplied and installed by HMS)? It has moved to #2 on the favorite mod list, right behind the 3L block.
Shaggy, I am taking down my pics of your setup (from Webshots). I agree, no sense in leaking out what Terry did so some cheap POS can rip it off.
