Also, just to be clear, the Lemforder mounts are $25 each on peachparts. It looked to me that they had originally had the benz tri-star logo on them, but that the logo had been scuffed off since they were selling them third party. You still got a good deal at the PnP, but I don't think anyone should be paying $150 for mounts.
Yes it has been well established that the Dealer Motor Mounts for the 617.952 are made in Turkey and made by Phoenix. The Lemforder Mounts have the Mercedes Star ground off but usuall still have the Phoenix Logo on them which reminds me a bit of the Chevrolet "bow tie" logo.
