Well there is OE - which is original - probably Mercedes Classic Center only ? not sure
OEM - meets original specs and quality - most suppliers have these, but not all If they are not OE or OEM, just take a look from time to time. You should be fine since you have been driving . Mine literally failed in less than 100 miles. I was new to the world of fixing up old cars, learned my lesson .... good luck

Thanks,Cairo.
The OEM (for decades) has been a company called Phoenix (now part of Continental) whose specialty is rubber mounts and air suspension for trucks and busses. https://www.meinert-hamburg.de/en/Vibration_technology/MEGI.php Their w110 mb mounts are not available on the aftermarket however. If one looked close on the original mount one'd see the logo or/and MEGI name Sachs/Boge/Lemfoerder used to offer mounts for w110/111/tec. but I was not sure about their quality and where they were made so I got the OEM ones years ago. At that time Sachs/Boge offered only the right mount ...but in packs of 5 pieces (!). The old mount on the photo looks like a w115 mount but I might be wrong. I am pretty sure that your local MB dealer would have been able to order the mounts for you. I agree with meltedpanda - concerning the rubber parts (mounts, windshield seals , boots etc., propeller shaft flex disks )- no aftermarket part could match the original. |

I inspected the new parts again, and I do not see any identifying markings. The transmission mount has only the word VORN with an arrow, which I assume is German for FRONT. I will definitely report back here if I see any degradation. |
