Hi mobile1,

Rein is an OEM to the German automakers so their parts tend to be of good quality, in my experience.

I have had mixed results from Üro Parts rubber components, but they seem to be the only vendor currently offering certain parts, so you may have no other option.

Meyle is another OEM to the German automakers and Jaguar as well. I can't recall whether this applied to the X308, but Lemförder has made most of the original Jaguar suspension components at least since the X350.

Cheers,

Don

My Üro upper shock mount plates w/ the new polymers have given me no issue w/ 3 years tenure.
