I was wondering if a 400/45/ZS DIESEL owner could do me an epic favor.

I'm after a picture of the gearbox mount on passenger side of the engine bay. I want to see what mount they use.

I would offer a free :svk: sticker but you unless your from the ZR site you probably won't understand it haha.

Cheers!

Can you see it from the engine bay, or do you have to get underneath the car???

I'm not entirely sure to be honest bud, I've not had much experience with the L series (not sure what surrounds the bay / how easy it would be to see)

I just want to see if the gearbox / passenger side mount if the same as this...

Looks like it might be easier if there's a derv up your neck of the wood, so you can get under.

You might be able to see it from above, on a 180 it's almost completely hidden, I don't know wether a diesel is as congested as a V6 engine bay, the pic Jacob used is my T16 which has the battery in the boot, so everything at the g/box end of the engine is really accessable.

Awesome, even if you can't get a pic but are pretty certain it's the same mount that would do :)

Had a look in the engine bay, couldnt really see anything.

Did think if its worth having a look round to see if any derv's are for sale near you, can always climb under to check the condition!!!!!
