Prop guibo part

Guys, guibos seem pretty expensive for the E90 from ecp - are they a special part? Read somewhere they were floating. Anyone know the part number for a solid rubber one that will fit?

Cheers

Cheers mate, found that the oem ones are Febi but they're all the floating type: hoping to find out whether a standard one (like e46) would fit?

Here's the difference:

Normal one:



E90 one:



Floating ones are expensive and apparently not as strong, so after the solid one but can't find a part number

You could try asking SGF since they are the manufacturer of the parts you show.
They are in Germany but the website is in English and it appears from the site that the first type is still available.
They should be able to advise if this is the case and give you details of a distributor in this country.
