Can anyone give me the correct part numbers for the E46 Cab rear strut top mounts please? I am looking on Real OEM but not sure what bits to order.

Also what parts do I order for the front strut top mount. Can you use the M3 part as well or is this a waist of time?

Thanks

M3 top mounts can be used mate. Item 7 for the rears I reckon.

Would you order no. 9 and 19 as well? Is it the plate that adds the extra strength?

Think that's the crack mate yeh. To be honest though oe stuff is 100 times better than aftermarket crap so just the rear mounts on there own will be a massive improvement

On the M3 top mounts there is two part numbers for the top bush. Do I want the one that is
+-30mm for the camber correction. I have got a big list going in to the stealership so want to get this right!

Thanks again.

What is your suspention set up mate. Are you using eccentric lollypop bushes. I renewed my front top mounts with eurocarparts oe quality ones. They were just standard e30 ones on 35mm h&r's and camber is perfect. Wouldn't say unless you have a serious drop they are nessesary.
