i am looking for a bracket to mount the oilfilter.
currently i have screwed the filtertop into the coolingtin on the left side off the engine. so the location is about right, but this is not rigid enough. i am looking for the type that is bolted on the exhaust portstuds off number 4 cylinder. i have seen some, but can't get hold off one now, maybe someone can help me out.
thanks

you could always grind one out of sheet steel like i did - it take's a while but its worth it in the end  Smiley

I still have some steel and the template - they are yours if you want them  Kiss

Any BUGPACK dealer can get one to you. Here are two different types.

thanks!

i am looking for the one that mounts to the head as the hoses are not long enough to reach the bumper and it is a type3, so i think that will be different as well.

ah yes i forgot to ask about that one. it looks very good (location wise would be perfect) and budgetwise it will be the best option right now. i have to safe up some money so i will go for your plan and make it myself. we will work out how to get the plans. maybe ship it with the walkytalky. no hurry for that though.
